    Suspension lift gives you more clearance for bigger tires and more clearance on the trail.
    Body lift gives you more clearance for bigger tires and looks good at the mall.

    Nice, hope to see you there again soon. I was also at the 2010 Moab meet as a mostly stock VXer. My point other than the jab, is that the VX wheeled pretty well for me for three years with a body lift/suspension lift setup. Of course, clearance was an obvious drawback. If I did all over again... I might do the same, or I might go all suspension. I do hate changing half-shafts though.
