1996 Lifts

[jrshepherd]

I need to replace all the bushings, shocks and springs on my 96. Im tossed between a 2" or 4" lift. I was going to buy form the graveyard. I heard the 4" needs long driveshafts and brake lines? today its just an urban 4WD (running over anything in my way). One day I would like to install the solid axel lift i saw from Duff on Gears. Any suggestions? Thanks again.

You can run a 6" and it won't require longer DS... Definitely get the extended brake lines though. In the Urban setting, you can go ahead and use add-a-leaf/blocks for the rear, even though blocks stink (save ya some $). Also, don't get roped into dual shock hoops in the front. You don't need them either. What size tire you planning on running? 33s will fit under a 4", 35s will "need" a 6".

Thanks. Im running 285/75-16 BFG KO'S. Do recommed any other manafractures for the lift's ? I'm going to run add-a-leafs instead of blocks or new leaf springs. I plan on takinjg it fishing and campinp, but not any extreme 4WD.

there is some cash right there.

I had a 92 w/a 6" BDS lift a while back. It rode well. I have nothing good to say about add-a-leaf kits...
