seriously? Like Cecil said, I LOVE how much more room I've got in the engine bay with the body lift. While changing spark plugs still sucks, it's not near as much of a PITA as it was before the body lift.

if we know your budget it will help alot.

you can do a 6" lift, 17's and 35's for under 4k

8" of lift requires gears and 37's so around 6k w/ gears.

12" of lift definitely gonna throw the price up there. i think the front is like 4k alone. then you gotta get custom rear leafs. so about $4700 plus your shocks. so 5k for the lift. $700 for install. wheels/tires 4k. gears 1500. so your looking at $10k for a 12" lift.

being 16 id start w/ a 6" bump it to 8" next summer or when the tires wear out. then body lift later on and get 11" and 38's or 40's
