Is there anything I can modify in my suspension to make my truck a little highr? Like any tension bars or anything like that?
Or... what is the best way to make my truck just 2 or 3 inches higher without having to spend thousands of dollars?

 

i'm not 100% on this but i'm pretty sure if you go the suspension lift route that, that's where you're going to be spending thousands of dollars. go with a body lift and it's only like 200$- $500

 

You can get a 2" lift easy, and cheap. I have it installed, and so do many others. You buy the Trail Master 2" lift/leveling kit for the front end, the kit is 2 coil spring spacers. Then, you buy a 1" or 2" lift block kit for the rear. The front kit is $80 the rear is around $25.

I will post a pic of how my truck came out with the kit, and larger tires, 265/75-r16 in a min.

 

Here is my truck (red) next to a stock truck.



and here is the truck just sitting on the street with the lift and tires.



and 1 more..

 

Where did you go to get the 1" or 2" blocks?

I ordered my 2" TM kit...can't wait for the install.

 

Only if you have the 8.25" axles.[:@]

 

You can get blocks for any axle..

If you don't have a local spring shop email me the dimensions and I can ship you out something custom. Ya might try a 4x4 shop or something rather than a parts store too..

 

Yeah, I got mine at autozone, 1" aluminum blocks, with a set of u-bolts, but i have the 8.25" axle. If you have the larger axle, you can order the proper u-bolts and blocks online, every truck/suspension place has blocks and u-bolts.

Also, my blocks have no angle correction, its not needed.

 

what all goes into installing rear blocks? I have the RC lift with the 1 1/2" rear blocks, but I want a bit more rake to it....right now I have none, and I think after adding my top, its not exactly level anymore....was thinking about going down to autozone, and getting some 2 inch blocks and putting them on myself, but wondered if it took more than my jack and basic mechanic tools.
