I'm not seeing 17" of lift there... There's too much tire in the wheel well for 42s but I'm not right next to it and the pictures are bad... The body lift doesn't look like a 5" who knows though like I said the pictures aren't clear and I'm not next to it...

I'm also seeing some type of drop in the rear spring hanger, looks funky...

Somethings been done to the factory tranny cross member as well... Most likely to clear the front shaft... I'd Like to see that and the steering setup... As well as the drops in the front

Sorry man, just my opinion... I'd rock it, just need to do some serious work
Hahahahahahahahaha I think you missed something

That and if you look at the frame horns and the ok bumper gap they equal up to look like a 3" body lift... Along with how low the frame hangs under the rocker... Bout as much as a 3"... Otherwise the frame would be hanging another 2" under the bumper

I've actually heard people call the 3" body lift a 5" before because they didn't install it and measured the body spacer and the factory body mount haha

I have seen "custom" 8 inch body lifts before lol anything's possible, doesn't have to be safe or correct to be possible haha... Just don't see 5" here...

I know Whiplash makes a 10" and 14" IFS lift so 14 and a 3" body would equal 17", but that doesn't look like a Whipsmash kit... Could be a custom lift... Nobody makes a 12" that I know of besides Bulletproof but theirs is only for 2wd...
