Default Lift and Tires

Alright so I have a 94. I want to put a 6" lift with 35" tires. Does anyone have any advice of what kind of lift to get, and with that size lift will I have to change out anything else? Thanks

Just make sure you get the FULL lift kit if your going for a 6" and if money is not an issue I would say SkyJacker but everyone will have their preference you may want to change your gearing but you DON'T have to once the tires and lift are on you will know if u want change... You will visit the fuel pumps more often...

Actually I get better gas mileage with my 35's than I did with 31's. Granted now I run in drive instead of overdrive, so I'm actually at a slightly higher RPM on the highway, so if I geared it down to 4.10 or so I'd be about perfect

I like Skyjacker lifts for TTB trucks. I was able to fit 35's on my 95 with just a body lift, had to do a bit of trimming on the back of the front fenders and the front bumper though. If I had the cash, I'd go Skyjacker Class II
