Body lifts are a PITA and if you get someone to install it you could be looking at 900 bucks, of course im saying that from installs in my town so prices might be different where you live. id save a bit more for the skyjacker 4in lift. If you do the 3in body kit and crank the tbars im sure you could run 35's without problems.

If your having someone install your body lift, don't buy it. Usually runs around $1000-1200 to install because it takes about 10 hours. So they charge 10 hours of labor.. it's a pain in the ***....

I'd save your money and get a 5" Rough Country suspension lift, it's $1200 shipped and is all bolt on. Have a buddy or 2 come over and help install it.

Currently the Rough Country 4-5" lift is $999. Who knows how long that will last?

If I had the money, I would get it.
