I currently Hv a 4" skyjacker suspension lift with 33" Mickey Thompson baja
Atz tires. Im thinking about putting a 2" body lift with the same tire but move up to a 35" size tire. Mr rims r 17's. Any thoughts or ideas. By the way had all my stock fender flares, bumpers, hinges, rear view mirrors and etc lined x. Well worth it to me. Gives it that rugged look and pluses takes the fade out
the sun caused over a period of time.

I would say with the 4" lift already in place, just get the 35's. No need for a body lift, especially a 2" body lift.

33's are not big enough man. Jump to 35's. With possible regearing...
Line X is a good investment.
