I installed it, it was a zone lift, I did it after work one day took about 4 hours to do, 5 hours total the next day I did the spare spacer piece.

Not really, the only thing depending on what kit you are going with I used a zone kit, their instructions are terrible! So I used rough countrys instructions off their 1.25 body lift kit to make sense of zones. I will say before you secure your body lift bolts make sure the bed and can are lined up it doesn't take a lot for them to be off and not notice until you have torqued everything down lol

Thanks for that info! My bed has been misaligned from the factory so it can only help. It's been to the dealers body shop 4 times for alignment. but never fixed

does this require 2 people to complete, or can I do it myself?

I did mine by myself, if your doing it at home you will need two jacks though. At least I did to evenly lift the cab up

I have 2. did you use jack stands, or are they too short?

Nope just two car jacks with a small piece of 4x4 wood to evenly lift up, just kind of went around and did one at a time

Here's a shot of mine. Bilsteins at 2.1" and 1.5" BL. Running 275/60s right now, but swapping these out for 315/70/17s next week. View attachment 116836

I keep coming back to this truck. that's what I'm going to do. Same setup, but bils at 2.8

Do the 3 inch body lift instead of the 1.5. Kind of like the guys that do a 4 inch suspension lift regret not doing 6 a lot of guys that do the 1.5 regret not doing the 3

Zone doesn't list a 3" for the '16. PA does though.

I just finished adding the Zone 1.5" body lift to my BDS 4" suspension lift. I still need to adjust the exhaust tips. A couple of things that I learned the hard way. Don't jack on the bed box and weld in the bed spacers. Drilling out the rear bumper alignment pins is a pita but I'll be building my own custom bumper here soon enough .

Looks good!!
