Exclamation Lift question...

Ok... If I put an add a leaf in the back... how much height will I get and what kind do I buy? Which leads me to my next question... If I put the add a leaf in, What do I put in the fron to level it... spacers in the shocks??? I already cranked up the torsion bars 1" and added 305 70 16 tires, I just want a few more inches. What happens if I want to add a 3" body lift, will that still work with all this? Thanks in advance...

It depends on what add-a-leaf you buy. You can get them anywhere from 1" to 6". For the front you can go with spring spacers for an extra inch or two. In my opinion instead of monkeying around with all that stuff just buy an entire lift kit. You can get them for as cheap as $600 bucks and you would actually get a real good working suspension that adds functionality instead of just appearance like you are now. That's just my opinion though...

And yes a 3" body lift will work no matter what you do with the suspension.
