I have a skyjacker 2" setup. I have a 3" body lift in a box. How bad would adding that to my X make it sway? Will it feel any less safe? I don't offroad. I do alot of HW driving at 70mph or a little more.

Thanks

If you lift it, it wont handle as well as stock, you'll still be able to do 70 mph but you'll get less gas mileage and your truck will be less steady in emergency manuevers. If you're concerned about this and you don't wheel why even bother lifting it? I used to drive my Explorer every day, my last job was 20 miles one way to work.

i have to agree with doug, i have no issues with my truck and it has been driven from NJ to TN and back and no issues, and i also use the truck to respoind to emergencey calls for the fire department that i am part of
