Besides, one major cool-factor with the body lift is that working on the chassis is WAY easier- I can get to the fuel sender and the vent lines easily, and changing the plugs is a breeze, since I can go in from the side gap between the fenders and the frame.

I was always a guy who felt that body lifts were the sissy way out, but now that I'm getting older, I gotta say: There is a LOT of value in any extra convenience you can find when you are wrenching on the truck, hahaha
I was suprised you said body lift, you did a great job getting the bumpers to look correct. It sits really well.
