Am contemplating an Up Yer Bug style body lift on my SWB beach buggy. Its a GP Mk 2 - a Manx copy basically.

It has side pods fitted.

Has anyone put such a body lift on a Manx / Manx type buggy with side pods, could point me to a pic please ?

I'm having a hard time imagining how that would look good, because you would now be able to see your pan, and the lift kit, which was covered up with the side pods before.
How much lift are you looking for? IRS or Swingaxle?

That's my worry.....

Was thinking of a 3" lift maybe

Its swing, and I'm wondering whether IRS conversion would be better
