You probably have seena silverado with 3 inch body lift but don't realize it. One key to for look is the huge gap in the rear wheel fender wells (between the bed and frame) or spacers used for the receiver hitch.

Body lifts are kinnda cheesy, and ugly(I am not a fan on them) but there basically just spacers and are not bad for anything (may wear bodymounts a LITTLE faster) your truck will drive handle steer pull or anything else the exact same way as stock. The only think that may change or be harder on your truck is the tire/wheel you run, and as long as there kept to no bigger to 3" and no one gets creative they are safe

for keys it puts all of the following at worse angles and wares them alot faster then at stock angle the componets are cv's, balljionts, tierods. plain and simple the the flatter the front suspension is the longer it will last. for instance my truck i run 36s and have broke 1 cv and 2 tierods but others that have the same size tire as me and have keys to get more hight have broke more doing less offroad.
