Welcome back...
Honestly didnt even know you were gone until just a few min ago when i read that thread....
But i will keep my opinions to my self. I belive you have my email if you would like to discuss it with me.....

As far as the body lift. There were no spacers that i am aware of. by "spacer" i mean anything between the body and the frame.

There are ribs on the bottom of the body that bolts to the frame....

But no extra spacers... atleast not on my truck, or any other stock truck that i have looked at...

If you can't tell if you have a body lift or not maybe you shouldn't be giving people advice in the offroad forum????

Well, its not like I give advise on lifts now is it? I give advise on things I know about or have an opinion on.

And as I stated before the only reason I had thought I might have one is because I had ALOT of room between my transmission and the body of my truck.

You don't have to critisize me for not knowing. Not that its all that important, i'll be over it by the time I click the little X in the corner.

How is it possible that I have missed 4 pages of this loller fest?

For a "noob" thread, all I've seen are senior users and a mod post up. Here's a tip for the noobs with questions, CHECK THE TECH THREADS that Adrian already put together! If it's not there, and you have already searched, then ask in a new thread. Makes it easier for the next noob that has questions.

Just my $.02, but feel free to post away......

Hey Paul, do you still have a big freaky alien head? :flipoff:


Maybe the F350's have larger body mounts than F250's lol. I still haven't seen any other truck that has that much room between the body and trans. :P


No worries though, i'm sporting 6" of stacked hockey pucks nowadays. Replaced that crappy solid axle with something with a little more flex. 6" blocks under a TTB. That sucker works great.
