Default Dmax and body lift

I searched but never found anything.

Does anyone make a 3" body lift for the HD's with the dmax?

Truck would be an 04 with a dmax.

Thanks

Nope, Im not even sure if anyone makes body lifts for the gasser HD trucks. But I know for sure that there isnt one for the Duramax, they dont make them because of the problems you will have with the intercooler piping not lining up after. The intercooler will be 3" higher than where it originally was and the piping wont be.

They dont make one specific for the Dmax. But.....you can do it. Jut takes a little plumbing on the intercooler. There are numerous guys that have done it. They just used a body lift for a 8.1 HD. The 6.0 HD body lifts are different because of the Allison/4L80E differences. Like I said, itwould be A LOT of work, but it can be done.

I can't do a suspension lift for a few reason, 1. I can't afford it lol 2. I use my truck to plow in the winter and the plow wouldn't reach the ground and 3. I can't afford it.

1BADHD you know where I can find some info about re-doing the intercooler piping?

I have an 8.1 right now but am trading it in this summer for either an 04/05 dmax.
