have you done any reading/searching on body lifts in this section and the bible at all?

As to where to get it done you could do it yourself with a couple of mates over a weekend. A body lift is failry easy to do even without much mechanical skills

A body lift will take you a good mornings work, price wise I'd say $220 although you would want to allow for some longer brakelines as well.

Pros - Increased clearance for larger tyres
Increased clearance for the sills
Cheap
Cons - Increased centre of gravity, although less then a Suspension lift
Slightly more stress on body mounts
Slightly more stress on steering universals

I'll answer that one ... just cruizin' doesn't to my knowledge run a shop or anything, but from experience he makes high quality, easy to fit, reversible body lift kits that work like a dream.

I'm a mechanical noob but had my Sierra done in about 4 hours, working by myself. That includes beer breaks :D

Depends what you drive like and how much load you carry. My kits support most but not all the positions where the chassis supports the body. I use blocks the same size as the original body rubbers. I won't say it can't happen but I will say it's not likely.
