I'm seriously considering the 1inch body lift from Daystar. I have never done a body lift before. Is there a downside to these kits or is it really as simple as it seems?
Thanks.

 

I have the 1.25" body lift on my jku and it s the perfect compliment to my teraflex 2.5 coil lift.
Only thing different is a bigger gap between rear bumper and tub of jeep. I would say go for it. You will like it

 

I've got the 1.25" RC body lift. Its an easy install, but fitting new front/rear bumpers and sliders requires modifcations/fab work. I wouldn't do it again.

 

aside from leaving a visible gap between your body and frame and raising your cog, you will have some shifting issues with a 6-speed. there are fixes for it but, none that are stellar.

 

Would it be better if I ditched my 1 1/4" rc bl and put 1" coil spacers on top of my 2.5" teraflex coil lift and still run my 37" km2's

 

I put one on to cool my floor some since I removed my carpet. And with my 08 I didn't have to do anything extra to my 6 speed with a 1" daystar body lift. I know some you have to use a trans spacer

 

I installed the performance accessories 1" BL and encountered zero problems. The space at the rear bumper isn't THAT bad, and I installed a leather shift boot from Redline to fix the stiff stock boot. Never had to trim inner boot to prevent popping out of gear- consider myself lucky, I guess.

 

Good thread, been wondering about this?

 

Ive done body lifts before and i never really cared for them much . I think the spacers would be better and probably same price or cheaper cause i just bought 3/4 spacers to level my jk and they were only $34

 

I'm considering a bl just to clear 35s easier. It's just another decision to add to the list.
