Hey guys I'm going to lift my truck with a body lift, first time doing it and I wanted to know if the gap gaurds were something that I would have to do or not really necasarry? Another concern would be the exhaust. I saw pics on here of a body lift and the exhaust was noticably low and didn't look good. I have a custom flowmaster with a deseil 5 in tip that looks good but I don't want it to look bad after the body lift any help would be great

 

the gap gaurds are only to cover the gap between the frame and body after the lift so not really necessary but it will look better with them on. i have them. as far as exhaust, just get your pipe raised

 

if you have a receiver hitch you will also notice how low it will sit below the bumper after you relocate it

 

dont buy the gap guards. I just made me some out of some rubber i had laying around the house. its way cheaper to make them

 

i made my own guards as well. fairly simple and cheap. As for exhaust, mine sat low for a while and now i cut it a foot after the muffler it sounds deeper now so i won't complain haha

 

ya use some landscape rubber stuff from lowes....looks good blends right in as 4 exhaust....idk mine didnt move

 

ill have to lift it and see what happens and id rather buy from lowes then pay the 80 buck from a company. Thanks guys

 

i got some of the floormat stuff at home depot for like 10 bucks and 1 roll will give you plenty. i have a ton left haha

 

i got some rubber matting at home depot for like 2 bucks a foot. came out real good, ill have to get some pics uploaded. just got screws for the top and then zip ties for the bottom.

 

I'm the same as everyone else. Home Depot/Lowes gap guards... I wanna see this 5in diesel exhaust tip!
