First question is, what are you planning on doing with your rig? A simple BB is a lot less then a grand and comfortably will fit 35s

I have the Teraflex 3". You can get the entry level 3" with shocks under $1k. Then you can add flex arms later. I also think the Rancho Sport lift is a brilliant lift design, it uses brackets to drop your current control arms down into correct geometry. I would get the Teraflex kit though.

sure if you are willing to chop your flares. But 3" on 35s is perfect

I think I would need flat fenders or a chop as stated above to run 37s. I have 35s on it:


If it is too tall for you then the 2.5" tera coil kit is awesome. It gives about 3" in the front and about 2" in the rear. I think it is a good looking lift.

TF 3" all the way!

Call Northridge and see what he can do, you might be able to get front lowers with it for less than a grand
