Because a body lift done right is an easy 3 inches, but its definately a serious pain to install on our diesels.

I love suspension threads, they're almost as good as the old tranny wars

Big Dan, you can get the BDS kit without shocks if you choose, but if 6" is too much lift then it's a moot point.

They offer a 4.5" kit for 2nd gens but that don't do you any good.

It really boils down to personal preference anyhow, 37's will fit a 3rd gen with 3".

[QUOTE=djgaston;1179890]Here is a link to the thread on Pirate4x4 about it. Caution, people say bad words on this forum, it's pure evil.

Edited by Admin

I love how the Pirate4x4 operates. Ive been on there since the beginning so its a little hard to break old habbit's but I think im doing ok over here. It does get a little frustrating at time's here with the zero tollerance language and the overly sensititive members

So I bet that answers lots of your guys questions about my online personality

This forum needs more smilies

13.50's + more offset or less backspace would explain that. Are you running longer CA's? 7" is WAY too much on stock CA's and IMO, too much for short arms.

There's a boatload of Carli, Lorenz and KORE guys that run 37's with no clearance issues.

Yeah, thats the problem im facing, only want 4.5 at most, ill only be running 35s so a tall lift with tires not big enough to fill the wells will look kind of dumb....
That and I dont want the hike up into the truck driving it every day, itll be tall enough with 4.5" lift on 35s...

Im sure it would be nice to piece together a setup, but money is kind of tight....
