lift questions

well i just got my first truck a few weeks ago and i've been wanting to lift it and been searching for what lift i wanted to put on it and its just confusing me.

so far i cranked the torsion bars just enough to level it out but i want a 3 inch lift on top of it.

I've seen alot of people on the forums with 3" PA body lift and i was wondering if someone could give me some more info about it before i commit to buying it.

What do you want to know about it? If you have basic tools, and basic knowledge of how to do them, it really is no big deal.

Body lifts are designed to lift a vehicle by placing 1" or 3" blocks between the body and frame. And, the Performance accessories lift block's are constructed of a high grade reinforced nylon block, and grade 5 hardware.

Once you put on all of the blocks the entire truck body will be lifted, not just the bed.

You can also go with the 4" superlift which is more expensive
