My progression over the coming years with an interesting forty (1 Viewer)

[FJBen]

My main thought was 4 inch lift and 33s. People said they had lots of rubbing in 35s. I saw a ton of other forums that said they all upgraded to 4 inches, and many of them recommended skipping the 2.5 lift. The 2.5 lift would allow me to keep my tires, but I plan to use this thing off road when I can. I have seen some 4 inch lifts with 31s-they look a little off but it isn’t as bad as I expected. I plan on eventually getting 33s, and I really like the look of a 4 inch lift, but 2.5 inch would be better on my wallet....

Just be ready for lots of other things that need replaced when you start digging into the lift. I know the lift/tires is one of the most fun upgrade though.

Make sure the brakes and steering components are up to snuff.

Outside of custom leaf springs, you have a few choices and all are around that $1000 plus range. Just remember that B series diesel has 80HP at the crank, so 50~60HP at the wheels. 35's are going to be really hard on that.

Ye, it already has front discs, and new internals, and I’m probably going for 33s. I don’t have a very fast commute. 45 mph roads only

Slap the skyjackers on with some Bilstein shocks and roll 33's.

That’s the plan. Probably a summer project

In Colorado the top is about to come off, so has to be summer there.

After a few hot days, I decided AC first, lift later

So I’m pretty set on a 4 inch lift...eventually. When I do, I think I’m gonna only lift the front for a few days (like a squat) for a joke, drive it around, get a few giggles....as long as it doesn’t cause damage. Does squatting it cause any damage? Wont be for more than a few days. Only doing it for laughs.
