If you have the adjustable coilovers you can crank them up for another inch or two of lift. If you have the standard Pro Comp, you can add adjustable coilovers. If you want any more lift, add a Performance Accessories body lift.

stop this madness. lifts are a disease. you will be never satisfied with it. i know. i want to go higher now. but think about it. you will have to regear, new uca's, extend brake line, possibly bigger brakes, bigger tires. there are lots of things that you have to change going from 35's to 37's. stay the way it is, in fact, post pics. ..

Yeah if you want to go bigger i would go for the the body lift and a new leaf pack maybe in the rear to raise it up.

You can add a taller lift block or an add-a-leaf to the rear, but new springpacks would be best.

you have the stage two so crank those coilovers, and get a body lift i dont see why you would need longer break lines you will still have the same amount of down travel as before even if you crank up you coilovers. you dont need breaks but they are nice to have just when ever you need new ones upgrade, and gears arent a thing you need right away, i havent done gears yet i have been lifted for a year. although i am getting gears in about 2 weeks!!!
