I have a 2WD and am wanting to lift it now. I have the 2" lvl done, but of course ready to get higher.

What do you recommend? I see the 4", but don't seem to see much of a difference.

Get the spindles and keep your leveling kit. This will give you about 6" of lift in the front. Than put a block or a deaver pack in the rear.

So I can get the 4" PRG Spindle Kit and keep level in front?

Any suggestions on where to look for the rear block?

To be honest, I don't know sh!t about sh!t w/ lifts

yes, but you would need blocks for the rear to keep it level. Hit up PRG for the kits. I believe his 4" Spindle Lift for 2wd has everything you need for it

Ok, I think that was the initial 4" kit I was looking at. So some of the 4" ones that I've seen may not have the level kit that I already have?

Thanks for the help and sorry for being a noob.

Yes, if you keep the level it will be a 6" lift if you take it out you will have a 4" lift. You can also get a 2.5" leveling kit for another 1/2" lift to make it a 6.5" lift in the front. If you keep the leveling kit your going to want a 3" block in the back or a equivalent deaver pack. The best thing to do is call Greg at prg and he will hook you up.

Thanks for the headstart guys. Much appreciated.

And if you want to keep spending you can get some uca, coilovers, and some other stuff and get it lookin like this:

That picture makes the stock wheels look awesome... I say that everytime I see a pic of that truck!!! I should go buy some new, larger meat for mine!!

That is what I'd shoot for down the road for sure.

Do you think that the 285/65's I have for tires now will look too small when I get the 4" and keep level + get blocks?

yeah you will definitely want 35s.

bonzai18 · 04-20-2008, 10:58 AM

Thanks again.

I may have to wait since there is still a lot of tread on my tires...unless I can sell them and reinvest in newer.

Or for better performance stay with the stock size tire, get the spindle lift, sell the level kit. Upgrade the coilovers and rear shocks ASAP, but set the coilovers for 0 preload, (0" of lift).
