Question Opinions Please :)

My truck already has a 6" suspension lift. I wouldn't mind if it was a lil higher though Would it look bad if I put a 3 inch body lift too? Or what else should I do?

Lemme know. Thanx.

It wouldn't look bad. Just be prepared to buy new tires and be sure to get gap guards. And, you are probably looking at $2,000 for your endeavor. That is not counting re-gearing if you choose to do that. 37's or 38's might be a little sluggish with a 4.6L.

I would either get the body lift or get u some coilovers, i did the body and coilvers and it drives great, the coilovers give it a smooth ride imo

Here's my old 2004 Fx4 - 6" Pro Comp and 3" Body Lift with 37's.

This will give you an idea of what it will look like.

yea and i think the coils would be cheaper overall if you get them from that website i mentioned . body lifts are a pain to install on the newer boby style trucks so you would be paying an arm and a leg for labour .
