hows the ride with a body lift?

i have 4 " lift right now, putting a new cab on and in the process was going to take the bed off any way and clean up the frame, while i was at it, i was going to put on a 3 inch body lift, i would like to run 37-38" tires was wondering how much a body lift would affect the ride, make it worse whatever, i am using polyurethane cab mounts, and the body lift would also be poly urethane, at 99$ for 3 inches i figure its a good deal, thanks HJ

Just one word of advise if u like driving ur truck dont go over 35 inch tires. Unless build the truck for those tires.

I have a truck on 38.5s it wasnt really built to handle them and in my opinion is a giant piece of $hit .
Althought it is fun as hell to drive and to be taller than everyone else and sure does look cool.
