Guys... As you know, im will be in the market for a cheap swb 40 series to last me the summer. Wanting a cheap way to put some big rubber on, and obviously a bodylift comes to mind. Now, is it true that the body is physically attached to the chassi and has to be cut before it can be blocked up an inch or two. Im only thinking 33's, but i think even for 32's i would have to give one a bit of liftage... If i wasnt heading overseas next year, i would lift the suspension 2", but not planning on spending $1500 before i go away. Thanks guys... Leeroy P.S. Wake up Cruiser Heads...

> Now, is it true that the body is physically attached to the chassi > and has to be cut before it can be blocked up an inch or two. not sure about that on the FJ40's but my broterh is doing this to his MQ patrol and its simply a bolt in affair.he is only doinga 50mm lift so he doesnt have to make everything else longer... i guess just get under and have a look when you get one!! but yeah body lifts are preety cheep.we got the the lifting blocks (all 6)for less than $50,brand new.. good luck mate, Dom

Leeroy, The body is attached to the frame with bolts. You have to unbolt the body and switch the mounts. What size 33's are you wanting to put on? 33x9.5" will fit on your cruiser with no problems and since they are skinny they will tuck under the rear fenders. I have 33x11.5" tires on my cruiser and it has the stock suspension and the springs are flat. They do scrape the fenders when under articulation so I would suggest on a skinnier tire. I personally like the look of the Skinny 33" tires. Hope any of that helps. Chase
