Oh and another thing I forgot to mention is that hav'n a body lift will also have an effect on the frame in this area. The body kinda acts like a stiffener to keep the frame rails from spreading on the top side, therefore IMO with a body lift the link would be longer between the frame and brace(body) giving it more chance to spread. I don't think it would ever cause any problems with the 2.9 but with 5.0 its possible.

The upside of hav'n a bodylift is then you would have room to fab a brace from rail to rail to stop the problem before it starts. As stated above this is just my opinion I don't have any hard facts to prove or disprove it other than the one I mentioned in the earlier post. BTW I'm not claiming to be be a BII GURU by any means if the truth be known I'm far from it.
