Depending on the lift kit you choose will decide what the final installed height is. Most 6" kits can be cranked up to 8". Most 4" lift kits can be cranked close to 6" safely. I know that the BDS, Skyjacker, Factech, and Trailmaster lifts can be cranked to 8". The RCD and Superlift, can be cranked close to 7" before the cv axles begin to bind. The Rancho, Rough Country, and Procomp can be cranked close to 6.5" safely.
And how big of a tire you think I'd be able to fit with that lift plus my current 3" body lift? Bigger then 35" I assume... I'm going for a monster truck look...

What I really need to know is if that kit is enough for the lift or is there more... I also do realize I'd be needed new gears also. Just looking to possibly purchase everything over time. And I want to be able to go with a 40" tire.
Looking at this for the front end also...

I'd get black halo projector headlights to go with it...

I hope!
I want to get a grill, headlights, and new LED taillights on it by the end of 2012... Hoping of painting it in 2014 (Black w/ ghost flames)....
Other then that, small mods here. Probably guages inside, lighting, badges, etc... Little things I can save for and get easily.
