body lifts are illegal in Maine?? WTF, why? Does Maine DOT think they know better than the engineers who designed the body lift in the first place? Like anything else, a properly designed and installed aftermarket accessory is only as good as the installer. If that is a fact, somebody ought to challenge it. I think they may be confused by the homemade hockey puck bodylifts that people used to use, stacking pucks with low-grade bolts and splitting the pucks. Even so, it's not likely to cause an accident, it's just going to let your cab settle onto the frame crooked.
