Alright guys what is the absolute cheapest way to get about another 4 or so inches of lift on top of my 2.5 leveling kit? Im a 4x2 and do little to none off roading. Not a truck or mechanical guru here so you might need to spell it out in laymans terms for me. :dunno:
More lift!

Thats what I was thinking, but still a little high for me at the moment. I might see if I can find some used on here in the buy/sell. Now if I do get 4" spindles do I need rear blocks as well?

cheapest way to lift is a body lift

Ah I forgot about a body lift. Are they any major pros or cons to either? Its a huge difference in price so there has to be some reason I would think.

with a body lift you basically only get clearance for larger tires

Well thats really the only reason for me because I dont do offroading hardly ever. I want 35's so it looks like I can clear that fine with a body lift. How much is labor though roughly?

Ill be sure to post pics, but it wont be for a while. I have to do a little more saving before I can get the body lift bought AND put it on. But will do when its done.

The thing I dont like about a body lift is it puts a big gap (on 3" body lifts) between your frame and the body of your truck.. Its not really my cup of tea.

Body lifts squeak and rattle and if you do get air unexpectedly there is a good chance you'll rip the body right off the frame
