Also, get a set of 1.5" wheel spacers. Rough Country has a great set of 4 for $118 shipped to your door.

You should be set then.

Appreciate the information. I'll run the 1.5" wheel spacers until I can get the money up to get some lift on it.

Put on the 1.5" SpiderTrax spacers and a 2.5" Teraflex BB kit... perfect setup for a daily driver (For now at least haha)

If you keep the BL under 2" you'll be in the clear.

Many people also don't like BL because they say it puts your center of gravity higher. Doesn't all lifts do that though? Lol.
What's funny is that body lifts keep the c.g. lower as the engine, frame and drive train are still at the same height.

I'm going with a 1" body lift to complement my teraflex leveling kit. Should look perfect. Won't even notice the bl other than in the height of the fender
