The OP has a 2wd, but for you the options are getting thin. The bottom line is the level kit up frt for you was the biggest bang for your buck, after that it's all about the wallet...Do you have the Off-Road package? If not, try to buy a used set of the O/R springs, they are stiffer then the non O/R, which will help for excessive bottoming, you can also get a set of Bilsteins for up front which will be much cheaper then a set of DR's or SAW's...what about 4wd? only subframe lifts? I want something I can do cheaply to the front to get it higher, I had some decent bottuming out today going to the beach, so I'd like to get her higher, I want to buy a deavor for the back, I have a 2.5" on the front, and yeah coil bucket is getting arm'd but it's ground a little so it's not too much of a direct hit anyhow, I'm looking to do a slight lift on my truck since it's cheaper and I really don't have any cash...
I have the OR package allready and don't care for the Ranc'HOs with 31000miles on them... I'll try to get a video of one of the spots I go to the beach... one beach crawling in 4lo at least two tires lift off the ground... another you're almost guaranteed to bottum out the truck... when I say bottum out, I'm not talking about the suspension... though I don't care for the ranchos at all... but then again they have alot miles I suppose... as I do more offroading than all the street guys... but then again I didn't care for the offroad ability new... so yeah, imo the rancho's suck BUT at the same time, I usually crawl it so maybe that's the springs? but my truck bounces a couple times so I'm pretty sure the shocks are gone... so I'll need to at least get bilstiens, I'd prefer a set of coilovers... could I go a little higher with a spacer on the coilover since it'd add preload? I'm guessing around 1" more and I'd be maxing?loufish said:The OP has a 2wd, but for you the options are getting thin.
