Post Lifting and performance

I would like to see my 99 4x4 sport maybe 2 inches higher, but i am greatly concerned about losing the already lacking cornering abilities of my truck. I am already planning on getting new sway bars, bushings, and shocks, to bring the truck to an acceptable handling level (i know its a truck and its not made to corner, but its how i drive) Anyways, what do you guys suggest, ur opinions are always appreciated

Buy better shocks, nest time you change your tires go with the BFG A/Ts..the side walls are alot firmer and thus handles 100% better..There are alot of things you can do to stiffen up your suspension, since most of the major automakers are going for ride, looks and mileage...Good luck, Dave
