I don't know, ask your parents how much more they're willing to donate to you...

well your pretty much screwed on the lift buddy unless you put new keys and turn them up all the way have it aligned and put blocks in the back that should run about 150 for the keys and blocks and prolly 100 for alignement and check ebay for some rims and tires or craigslist but as a cheap mudd tire you cant beat maxxis buckshot mudders i would go with a 17 by 9 or 16 by 10 rim that would look good and you can prolly do it for around 1200 or 1300

$1000 not gonna cut it. My advice to you is to pick 1 thing for your truck and work on that. Save up and move on to the next thing. Just keep chipping away at it until you have what you want like how most of us "old guys". Also if you skimp to try and get everything on your list for cheap you'll end up with low quality junk that's falling off your truck. Sure it's a crap-ton cooler to get everything at once but it's just not realistic for the majority of us.

x10 very true most guys and gals on this forum didnt build their truck over night it comes with time and to get a good outcome of your rig its best to do it like most of us did it on here start with what you can afford and little by little save up and get the next thing on the list. anyone csan go out and buy cheap junk parts and slap them on but it will bite you in the a@@ later on and you will wish you had saved and done it right good luck keep us posted!!
