i want to re gear it to 4.10s or 4.56s but idk if i will have the cash to do it right away. but if i get a body lift and 35s i will have the cash to re gear and lock the rear end. so i am undecided at the moment. i think the bl 3" with locked rear would be a better off road toy for my price range.

i also want to do a seat swap. i would love the king ranch seats but they are hard to find around here for decent price. i would settle for cloth 60/40 seats with arm rest. the bench seat sucks. plus the arm rest has storage which my single cab needs

theres my future plans and some i already have done. check out my link below
Will lifting it hurt the power alot since its a v6? I'd love to have 35s and a lift but I'm curious if Id have any power

lifting it will not effect power. but the wheels/tires will. if you re gear you will barley notice the heavier tires.

i want 4.56 in my truck when i get 35s. but i still have to price it all out

Here's my 02 v6. It's got a bds 6 inch lift with 33s. 3.55 gears right now. Hopefully upgrading to 4.10s and 35s soon. It's also getting a 5.4 put in once I get it rebuilt. I figured it was time for some extra power

It's not terrible but you can tell its a v6 with 33s. Gas mileage isn't very good either
