Forget lowering, lets LIFT!!!

I want this think JACKED before the end of this year. I'm aiming towards x-mas time to get a lift. I want 4-5 inch suspension.

4WheelParts use to have a nice Fabtech 4 inch kit, but now they only list 3 kits. I like the Trail Master 5 inch lift. Comes with shocks, brake lines, everything.

I dont think its bad for the Price and what it includes.


thoughts?

That's a great kit. It's one of the new kits that got redesigned after Trail Master was bought 5 years ago.

I say screw the IFS and go with a Dana 44 or Ford 9" front and some 36's with just enough lift to clear and flex good. If you are gonna offroad it.

SAS with a D44 can be done under 1k if you do the work yourself and shop around for deals
