What wires to check before body lift?
I put my 2" body lift on a couple months ago and since then I have had electrical problems that only keep getting worse. Are there any grounds that you guys came across while installing your body lift? I cant seem to find one.

i did a 2 inch body and the ground to the firewall from the motor was tight just look around for tight wires. my trucks givin me wireing probs before the lift such as wipers heater lights ect maybe not from the lift even. good luck

Yea that one ground strap at the firewall is an important one...other than that check to make sure nothing is pulled up against the block or fan. The wiring harness that runs behind the drivers front wheel that you have to loosen can get tight if you don't pop up the wire clip. If that clip stays put, you'll pull the wire back into the exhaust manifold.

Can you tell me EXACTLY where this ground is? All this wiring jumbo is driving me crazy!

Pic:
That's the driver's side front tire in the pic. That wire goes up through a clip behind the wheel well cover, but if you did not unclip the harness from the frame rail, it could easily pull out of the upper clip, which puts the harness up against the exhaust. There actually not even enough slack in the wire to let reconnect to the frame rail as you can see.
Also you might just wanna inspect all the way along the frame rails. There's quite a few wires that run near them
