Body mount rust repair and rubber donut replacement have made it on to the to do list. Any reason I shouldn't add 1/2" ( half of an inch) of body lift while I'm at it?

body lift?

I agree with Robert when the lift is the typical 1-2”, but in my experience a 1/2” body lift makes the vehicle easier to work on and improves tire clearance without affecting suspension geometry or introducing the any major negative side effects.
I see the problem with my post. I'll edit it. I did mean half of one inch. Thanks for the input!
It's interesting because over seas the Brits love them some body lifts and spring spaces. I've seen some guys claim to have 2" springs, 2" blocks and 2" body lifts, but only running 33s.. Ive only used body lifts in old Jeeps when we were high school because we were too broke to afford a full lift kit.
Some guys will run a 1" body lift on Jeep TJs so they can get a flat belly. That to me is the only reason I see to run one.
