Default yet another lift question...

Hey thought I'd post some pics of my truck as well. It is a '95 1500 with some 33's on it, no lift. I had a question regarding a 3" lift. How high do you have to go before you start fooling around with sway bar and steering parts? Can you put a 3" kit on without extended pitman arms and sway bar extensions?? I'd like to do a 3" kit myself, just a little intimidated. Plus I don't have air tools. Thanks again.
Donnie

hey.. i have a 3 inch rough country lift on my dodge (2001 1500 4x4) and it didnt affect any linkages or anything. it says anymore then 3 you need to.. but 3 is fine.. mines just a 3 inch spacer and blocks in the back.. handles good and looks nice and with the lift i actually sit about an inch higher in the front then the 2500 diesels

3" should deffenitially be fine. My Jegs.com theres a 3" SkyJacker kit with new Coils and Ad-a-leafs. Also new lower control arms, its like $400 only. Doesn't come with shocks though. But with shocks and the duel front steering stabalizers it was like just under $600 if I remember right. That seems like a good deal to me.
