Why do you want to do a body lift? what size tyres are you trying to run?

The body lift will just lift the body up from the chassis.
As Scottie says what size tyres are you running?

How much suspension lift do you have?
Tbh I would rather trim for clearance than do a body lift, I've never been a fan of body lifts. Raising the body does nothing to improve off-road performance.

I have 31s on with a 2" suspension lift, but I needed to get the angle grinder, jigsaw and hacksaw out to achieve that. It also depends on tyres too, I would fit then trim what needs to be removed but it will be tight.

It doesn't affect the full lock.
You have to trim around the flat face of the plastic arch and remove the metal behind it.
