Default where to buy

Im looking to buy the 3" RC Lift and some HIds. Is there a good place to buy them both at? I also might get a few other things while im at it but whats a good play to buy everything at once at besides ebay.

best and cheapest place for 3 inch spindles is ebay for about 270 i think last i checked. You can also find them on www.airbagit.com. Check out our dedicated HID thread as it WILL save you some time. Our sponsor www.hidxtra.com has a vendor section here and does right by our members

when you say a full 3 inch lift do you mean front and back? If so them just get the spindles and some 3 inch shackles or blocks.

Yeah, 05s have 907 head lights and 9006 fogs

Gotcha.....a budget lift. Been there and done that one

First thing ill throw out is a body lift from Performance Accessories. It s a 3 inch and runs 300 to 350

next thing are these CST 3 inch springs for 180

http://www.performancelifts.com/cgi-...rt/CSCDX2.html

You can run them with $5 shock extenders from autozone and the blocks or shackles shouldnt cost more than 50.

Dont HAVE to run extended shocks on the rear because there isnt as much weight as there is on the front. However, if you want new shocks on the front and rear then look at some Comp ES5000's

i was thinking of doing the body lift but i dont want to get into the whole bumper crap lol. I feel if im gana spend 180ish on just the springs im better off at spending 120 more and geting everything i need. This isnt gana be used for anything just looks and DD

I gotcha. I did a body lift on mine and it wasnt hard at all. Only the front bumper needed trimming as the back bumper came with brackets. A sawzall made quick work of the front.

Either way, hope this is all enough to get you going, if you do the suspension lift, check and replace anything else kn the front end like ball joints, tie rods, ect and dont forget the alignment.
