Yo I got one! In got a 04 Z71 ext cab with a 3 inch BL. I also cranked the t-bars about 1.75 inches. I'm running 325x60 Terra Graplers on ProComp 1059 18's. I'm happy with the lift. Glad I did it myself since there is alot to installing it. I don't see much of a difference in gas milage. But I can't spin the tires as easily as I used to. But the power is there when I need it.

Mine's an 03 4x4 with a 3"BL, 16x8 Mickey Thompson Classic II's and 305/70/16 BFG AT TA KO's. I didn't crank my torsion bars because I don't like the ride with them cranked and I drive 100mi a day in mine. I put on Ransho RSX shocks and love the way those ride. Let me know if you have any questions. It was worth the $$.

What type of Body Lift do you have on that sharp looking truck. I have a 2004 Green Metalic with stock ride hight now and a set of 20" MB Motoring Chrome Smooths with 295/60/20's and want to raise her up a bit. . any input would be great guys.

It's a 3" Performance Accessories body lift (www.performanceaccessories.com).

Go with the 3" PA BL. I installed 4 so far (94,95 and 2 `04 silverado's, and the instructions and hardware were very good. The gear linkage (where you suppose to cut and weld in a 3" piece in its place) can be a little tricky.

 

Good Luck.

Anyone got pics of a NBS Suburban with a 3" bodylfit? I'm seriously considering it since I dont go offroading but want the lifted look with larger tires.

 

And a couple other things I noticed about the tech notes on Performance Accessories site. It says the bumper horn has to be modified. What exactly is this? It also says the front fascia has to be trimmed. Which part and where? Also is there any modification needed to the fuel filler hose? Will it reach?

 

I did a 3" body lift on a 1995 Wrangler a few years back. Judging by the pics of the parts included with the Suburban body lift, it looks very similar.

Bumper horns can be trimmed with a grinder, my fuel neck stretched enough too. The tow hook holers on the valence must be enlarged towards the center.

Is this to allow use of the tow hooks or is there something in the way? I can recall if there is something there on my Suburban. Plus its sitting at home.

My kit came with a fuel filler neck extension that did the trick. The bumpers were actually the longest part of the install.
