I have a question about my body lift and transfer case drop

[NateDog99]

It always is you can absolutely cut down your body lift as well, although I would recommend going with savvy’s 1.25” BL so that the material, shape, and hardware length is all correct. You should look for a 1” MML, again I recommend savvy’s 1” spacer that goes underneath - but brown dog and MORE make complete units that raise it 1” and replace the mount. Just remember not to stray from rubber.

ok ill look at both of those thanks for the info what do you mean by "Just remember to not stray from rubber."

By that I mean don’t get poly motor mounts or transfer case mounts - that equals a lot of vibrations.

To determine your lift height you can measure the overall height of the spring and any spacers while sitting at ride height, for the front standard height is 12 inches anything over 12 inches is your lift for the back standard is 8 inches anything over is your lift. If you have a 3 inch lift your front will measure 15 inches and your rear will measure 11 inches. You could get rid of that TC shifter drop bracket by installing a Savvy cable shifter Then you could play with installing the MML and removing some of the TC drop.

Edit: and maybe get rid of some of the 2” butt crack.

ok thats great i will have to figure that out tomorrow. so if i installed that cable shifter and the MML and dropped the body lift from 2" to 1" i would be able to remove the tc drop without having to buy an SYE and DC driveshaft?

You might be able to remove all or at least most of it

Having a BL allows you to put a MML on, it’s a way to help driveshaft angles and possibly remove a transfer case drop. You can run a 1” MML with either a 1” or 2” BL.

You can also run a MML with no body lift. Just have to relocate the fan shroud up on the radiator instead of down like you would with a body lift.
