Default Body Lift?

Anyone Install a 2 inch body lift? I'm not sure if to install a 1 inch or 2 inch I guess it depends on what I have to change to install a 2 inch body lift.

A body lift is more easily seen on a wrangler than other vehicles. Many people do not like body lifts, most will "allow" a 1 inch lift without giving you too much grief. Obviously it's your Jeep to do what you like but I have seen a few pics of Jeeps with 2 inch lifts shown as "what NOT to do".

Or you could do like the Tony Hawk Jeep and add a custom skyjacker 9 inch body lift

honestly, anything more than an inch really looks fugly as the pinch seam will sit above the frame by quite a bit. but hey, that's just me. as mentioned, if you have a stick, you will most likely not be able to pull a 2" BL off without having to do some major trimming.
