Help Me - Several General Questions

ok first off id like to say my truck is street driven so i dont want to hear its a 2wd i know it is.im going for looks.

but i do have a few questions:

first off its a 4.6 v8 scab

i want the 8 inch rize with 37s

now it lacks power as is with this lift is it gonna be dead or will i be fine?

im planning to re-gear also.

i was thinking too that if i got a tuner and intake maybe i could get back to stock/ maybe a little better?

i just want some input to make sure i wont regret all the money put in.

rize kits are only for 4wd trucks.

you would have to re-gear and probably put a edge evo in and youd be a little over stock power

Why would anyone want to jack up a 2wd pickup? That would look absolutely retarded.

tbizzle shut the hell up its his truck, and i have plenty of friends that have 2wd lifted trucks, and it looks no different just sits a little lower.

so get outta here leave him alone he even stated "ok first off id like to say my truck is street driven so i dont want to hear its a 2wd i know it is.im going for looks."

so take it somehwere else

How the hell does a lifted 2wd look any different aside from a nearly unnnoticably smaller amount of crap up under the front? That's the dumbest thing I have ever heard... there are more lifted 2wd trucks around where I live than 4wd, ever heard of a prerunner? About 85% of prerunner trucks are TWO WHEEL DRIVE.

Hmm...

Thank Josiah you rock! Lumadar is right... all the winning trophy trucks and class 1 buggies are 2wd! So next time think before you say something stupid.
