    I have been shopping around and still not sure what I want. Do you guys recomend a body lift or suspension lift? How about a leveling kit. I dont really want anything massive like a stage 2 6' lift or anything like that.

    I run 285's on my Chevy HD just by cranking up the front end a little...you can pick up a couple inches without affecting the alignment. IMHO that's tall enough.

    Thats what I was thinking about. Getting a 3" leveling kit and I heard it doesnt mess with anything. I think this is all this guy did with his.


    LOL why did I know you were going to respond to me. I actually was expecting it but I knew you had a truck. What size wheels you have?

    The problem is that if you do a body lift you run the risk of it looking awkward because the body is sitting high but the frame and suspension are low. If you keep it under 3'' I think you might be okay but I would still recommend a suspension lift because it looks better. Plus you go trail riding you'll have the proper clearance.

    16's. You don't need a lift kit to run 285's. There is enough vertical adjustment in the stock suspension to get fender clearance.

    here's mine

    True, I was thinking about 4.5" lift but for like a few hundred bucks more you can get a 6". Only problem is I park in garages a lot so dont know what im going to do.

    What kind of truck is it? 2wd, 4wd, independent front suspension, solid front axle? If it's a tundra 4wd, I am not too familiar with toyotas.

    Don't do a bodylift. They look so ugly.

    Yeah thats true I have 285's are optional tires listed for me. My truck has stock 18's so I think im going to go with 20" wheels and then go up to 295's or 305's.

    I thought it said life questions.


    I still haven't bought a truck yet. The one I want though already has a lift on it. GMC Sierra Texas edition.


    I am debating on getting the Denali though as opposed to just the regular Sierra.
