Alright coool cool, what kind of lift you think? Fabtech, BDS?

Depends on how big of tires you want to go with , what kind of wheeling you do and how often do u do it and the all important how much are you willing to spend.


I don't always wheel , but when I do I keep it tight......... Stay dirty my friends.
 
Money not to big of a factor. But i was lookin to ride a couple trails an do some muddin every now an again. Lookin probebly 35s on tires. But mostly road riding

If your doing mostly on road with a little off roading here and there I wud go with a nice 2.5" budget boost either some spacers or springs and shocks that will give you plenty to clear 35s just IMO stay away from Tera flex coils they r very very stuff and on road ride is uncomfy at best

You wouldnt do a 3" or higher lift?

If you have an automatic and go bigger than 3" you will need a new front DS and somethung to correct ur steering geometry such as adj front and rear track bars so your adding about 1000$ extra just so get that extra 1/2"-1 I wud recommend getting a 2.5" with new springs and shocks and you will be very pleased how that will look with 35s and if you want that extra inch later on you can just get a set of spacers for 125$

Evo rock sliders and poison spyder front diff cover ordered and on it's way. Can't wait to paint these babies and get them installed this week, hopefully before my Catskill mountain run next week.

Just read your whole thread...your rig looks AWESOME! Question: do you have any pics of your Smitty Tire Carrier without the wheel on it? Any advice for mounting it? I just got 35's and am looking for something similar.

Thanks and I'm not sure if I have any pics with no tire but I can tell u it's a great kit very strong I've had it on for 2000 miles with a few off road trips and not a single rattle it seems perfect for.a 35 but i will be changing it out when I get 37s
