The Cheapest Way
I have a V6 that's at completely stock height right now. What I need to know is what is the cheapest way to lift my truck to clear a set of 35's. I went to Dealers in Alhambra, and they were trying to sell me the Fabtech 7.5" Ultimate Long Travel Lift with the dual shock engine case. Don't get me wrong, I loved it, but it was just toooooo much! Almost $6200. I was thinking of going with the Fabtech lift but also wanted to know what the cheapest way would be to get a lift that will let me ride on 35s. I am in So.Cal (Los Angeles), so if you know of any shops I can visit, please let me know. Thanks for reading and giving info!!! I will thank you again when I get the lift and post pics

Have you considered a body lift?They are a very effective way of getting big tires under a truck.Much cheaper than a suspension lift also.I think(don't quote me on this)performance accesories sells one for right around one big bill($100).I honestly don't know if those 35s will fit with just a body lift,But a 285/75 will fit with no lift so it is a good possibility.You might want to email them and ask them what they think.Hope this helps
