I'm getting ready to build a bed, but I want to keep it low and flat, while clearing the gas tank and rails etc... Would it be an incredibly stupid idea to put say, a 2 inch body lift under a flatbed?

Psst, when you build your bed, you can built the mounts any height you like!
No need for body lift.
IFS is best kept at ambient temperature in a pile of scrap in the backyard.  When kept under a functioning vehicle, it tends to greatly diminish said vehicle's offroad ability.     -reklund5
