Default Body lift install??

I have an 03 QCSB, I was wondering if anyone here could give a better detail of the work it takes to install a body lift. I know most of the basics but have never talked to anyone or researched how to install it on my exact pickup. How long did it take how difficult, was it worth it?? Thanks alot for all the help.

Rob

I'm assuming it's a Performance Accessories lift. I did one on my old '98 Dodge SC 360CI 4x4. Took two of us about 11 hours over a weekend. But with less beer and food breaks, it could have been done in about an 8 hour day.
Here is a link to their step by step manual. Same one that comes in the box:

Yeah I wanna do a suspension lift butI am broke lol, barely getting my fix satisfied byjust orderinga leveling kit (should be here on friday installed by saturday lol). I never really considered body lift but now i cant remember his name but the guy that posted "its been a while..... heres the update" That truck looks good with no huge gaps and stuff. Just a thought, not sure which direction I will go. I have little to no patients......

Body lifts are simple, just a lil time consuming is all. Basically all you do is take the body off the frame and put blocks between it...
