what to do

tryin to decide which way to go on my truck..... should i just buy a 6 inch lift for around $2500 installed. Or save some money by just adding a 3 inch spacer up front and a 3 inch body lift. my truck is a 2wd daily driver with a 1.5 inch spacer and about a 33 inch tall tire with 17s. but i wanna run a 20 inch wheel on a tire around 35 inches tall. is the 3 inch spacer too much of a lift up front to where its gonna eventually mess somethin up?

2.5" leveling kit and a body lift for your 2wd to fit 35's. Or, just do it right and get the Fabtech lift. The 3" level will probably put your ball joint angles too extreme.

the 3" leveling kit will definately put some stress on your ball joints..... if you have the money to do the lift, i think you will be happier in the end.

I agree. Also, if you have to buy a PA body lift and pay someone to install it, you will have about the same amount of money invested as with a standard 6 inch Pro Comp lift. The body lifts for the 04-08's are pretty expensive and are a pain to install so labor install one is pretty high.
