Actually the body roll is unchanged. Imagine a truck with flimsy stock springs 5 feet up in the air with all the lifting done below the springs. While a roll over is more possible, the body roll (way up there) will be the same. (Actually less because you would change your driving habits). Again; the truck doesn't know how high it is.

If I thought you were, I would. I didn't want to say I disagreed and then say I was done and didn't want to hijack the thread...but since you asked. Similar to how you said I was wrong but didn't offer an explanation until I asked for it. 
I read a lot of your posts, sometimes I agree with you sometimes I don't and that's ok with me. (I'm sure you too! hahaha)

OK I will make it real simple. Walk up to a stock Ex, shake it, and notice how much it moved. Now put that Ex on a flatbed trailer, climb up on the trailer and shake it again, was there a difference? Remember we were talking about body roll difference after adding blocks and having it affect the springs over time.

Example # 2; With the Ex strapped onto the flatbed truck by the axles, drive the truck at 70 mph around a sharp curve, notice the body roll. Did it roll more by being up there? ......no.
Everything below the spring level has nothing to do with body roll, unless you are counting the slight compression of the tires.
