I have run my BJS for over 2 years with no problems and alignment was right at factory specs. The advantage with the BJS is that not only are you getting 1.5ö of lift but also that much in added suspension travel and maintain the same ride quality that I had stock. ItÆs still not bad now with an additional 4ö of lift and 35ö but I do plan to SAS this summer or next winter and can easily sell the BJS if I want to. For the money and ease of installation, I would go for the BJS over a body lift any day.

BJS û Modify the upper A-arms, extend the front shock, and add a longer shackle or blocks to the rear. If you want a little more lift, add a diff drop kit and crank the t-bars an inch.

Body lift û Depending on the amount of BL, you may have to do some modifications. The radiator needs to be move up, shifter (trans and t-case) levers may hit the body, bumpers need to be raised unless you like the gap and you have to extend the steering shaft. Body lift is great if youÆre going to do a drive train lift and move the gas tank up too for more clearance.

In the end, I think it would cost you the same amount of money no matter which one you decide to do.
