I ask because I want ideas. As for maintenance plugs and coils were replaced the day I bought the truck. Tranny was replaced at 190k miles paper in the truck. Drives great which is why I was looking for ideas for what to do. It's got a 2.5 inch lift already I was looking for a little more so i wanted suggestions. And looking at at least 30s.

The show'em off thread is a good spot to check out what tire size and lift looks like on our rigs. 33"s usually minimum for most guys with any sort of lift and most stock 4x4s of our gen. Keep an eye on trans flushes and such cause the 4r70w is kinda fragile lol only talking from experience there are guys out there that get 300k out of a 4r but they are few an far between if they do any real work with the truck. And I would honestly consider timing within the next 100k I don't want mine getting past 250 without new chain, guides, and tensioners at least. But I beat on mine it's all in how you drive. High rpms and hard shifting and loose chains don't go together just keep that in mind.
