What vehicle?

As for body lifts, I prefer 2" and lower. I say this because if you have a stick you dont notice it to much but you can extend the shifters. YOu dont have to bend the heater and AC lines to much, you only have to move the radiator a little and I think 3" looks pretty bad as you can clearly see the frame.

Attempted translation: Will I really be able to tell the difference between a all around 3" body lift... then you totally lost me, but I tried.

I am sure we'd like to help... but are you asking what the difference is between a 3" and 2.5" and 2" body lift is? Answer: 1/2" difference between each.

If you are asking if you can mix and match body lift spacers then the answer is NO.

I have a 4" body lift. Is very helpful with working underneath, plenty of room, but a pain in the ass for looks when getting bumpers etc..and the shifters were a royal pain. I had to make a 4" deep box to insert into the floor for the boots to work back at the factory height. And a body lift doesn't look as nice. Go suspension for lift. You only really need 2-3" for 33's.
