i think the engine is to much weight for a body lift to safely support it

Uh, I thought a BODY lift only lifts the body. The engine is mounted to the frame. So, therefore, the engine would still be in the same place.

From what I have read, the body lifts dont work because of Intercooler mounting and pipe/hose routing. It works on the superduty's as long as you DONT have a diesel motor in it.
