Lift question
 
I'm looking how to raise my truck another 2-3 inches. I already have my torisions cranked. Is there anything else I can do?

You could get a body lift

Or a real lift...

And what size tires you running? 33s give these trucks a great stance.

Depends on what your budget is. If you can afford a suspension lift, try that. If you can't, go with a body lift. Personally, with the cash i'm getting back from taxes, I'm going the body lift route this spring and getting it done on a weekend. :)

Idk about anyone else but I don't have 2000 to spend on a. Lift kit , I got bills, school loans, truck payments, car innsurance , phone bill , gas, health innsurance , i was lucky enough to get the 33 inch tires I have and rims but that's the last big mod for a while

So just go with a body lift bud, unless your doing serious wheeling every weekend and rock crawling and what not there's really no need for a suspension lift, like me I wheel maybe once a month usually just for looks, anyone who says lifting a truck for looks is dumb obviously doesn't have real bills so they can afford breaking stuff all the time wheeling

A 3 inch body lift will run you about 300 if it comes with all the brackets to raise the bumpers and fue filler hose extenders and anything else ud need

True. Body lifts are going for around $204 on Amazon right now for free shipping. If you are doing it just for looks, a suspension lift won't be worth it unless you're going off road all the time.

I swear this is the only place in the world that the majority of the people like and recommend body lifts.. I never heard a good thing about them until I joined here. There are some trucks with them that look good(usually stacked with a 6in suspension lift) but I'd never do it to mine

Well why waste 3 grand on a 6 inch lift and eat threw ball joints and wheel bearings with the 35s 37s you'd run with it when it's a daily driver
