Question for those of you who have done a Body Lift...

I have a question for those of you guys that have done a body lift... with the cab body mounts removed how high can you lift the cab with out having to disconnect wires and such? I know at least one of you tried while you had your cab unbolted.

Thanks!

Atleast 5 inches.

There are a few ground cables to watch and the mechanical fan with the shroud.

Steering shaft, tranny lines, battery cables, and cable to the transfer case.

btw you have to unhook most of the stuff i listed when doing the body lift.

lol... no.

I'm wondering how high I can lift the Ranger cab off the frame to do some work on suspension parts without unplugging stuff like wires and such.
