Default What should I do next??

I have been looking in lifting my truck since before it was mine. It has about 49,000 on it as it sits in the drive way to day. I want 5" but I know I can't spend that kind of cash on it. I'm going with 3" for top guns. (http://www.topguncustomz.com/Store/G...iview=25474016)
So Should I save for 4.56's and A rear lock or new tires or the lift? I would like to run Dick Cepek Mud Country or Nitto Mud Grappler. I know I'm looking at give or take $2,000 for gears $1,500 for tires and $500 for the lift. Which should I get frist. PS My seniors graduation is June 12(our last day is the 4) I hope some cash comes in. I also hope I get into the Operating Engineers Local 542. I found out that I know a few ppl in there they made a few phone call 3,000 ppl applied for the job.

If I was you I'd use the extra cash to go back to school and learn how to speak English. Then go out and save lives.

I thought you already had new tires and rims like a few weeks ago?! You told us the camera was broke and you couldn't take any pictures...
