Rocky Road Body Lift

How does the RR body lift hold up? I have their spring spacers on my 2005 4door GV now, and they have collapsed to almost no lift. Wonder if the body lift works better. Thanks in advance.

What type of spring spacers did you use? Here is a picture of the lift kit I make that will fit your truck. The spacers are made from billet aluminum and will not collapse over time. I would recomend staying away from bodylifts for a couple reasons but the obvious one being that a suspension lift raises your complete truck up which increases ground clearance where a body lift only moves the body up off the frame.

their body lift is solid, have had mine 4yrs and wheel regularly. their spacers are crap, mud child's look nice and suspension is better than body lift.

OBTW as your RR coil spacers gradually compressed to 1/8" your front alignment changed significantly and now you are probably wearing the inner edges of your front tires excessively unless you have continually returned for an alignment. This is another great selling point to the coil spacers like mudchild's or Jeff Hoepker's.... they don't collapse. Once they "settle in" you are good and your truck will hold an alignment and you get more miles from your tires.

Thanks all,
I have Jeff's kit waiting to go on next week. I'm considering a 1 or 2 inch body lift, and was wondering how the RR lift worked considering the dismal results with their spring spacers.

Most body lifts are the same brand that people rename as there own, I got a Zukination one that came with the copy and paste Sky instructions. I asked him about it and he said out right it was the sky kit. Seeing how RR has a 2" lift it is more then likely the sky kit which has the same blocks as 95% of all body lifts for all trucks

here are the zone ones straight from china, or you could get the masterkit1 body lift but their stuff looks like some kids in grade 10 metal work designed and made it

I also own an ark welded and a can of trim clad I should start selling lifts

RR is also from sky i believe, never had a problem with it. be sure to extend the steering.
