    Cut out the DB lift and put a solid axle under it. Running IFS and 37s just doesn't work IMO. Things will wear out a hell of a lot fasted

    Are you just trying to clear larger tires? Do you offroad y your truck? With that much of a lift it might be dangerous to throw a body lift on there and then try to wheel it. My.02. If you do it I want to sweet some pics!

    Just stick with 35s, minor trimming, maybe a cmc might help, regear front and rear.

    Wow...3" Body lift?

    Something to think about.... I knew a guy with a Jeep (long time ago) who had a 3" body lift. He had a panic stop, and the entire body of his jeep slid off the pucks (bolts broke). That much momentum and that much weight....the bolts couldn't support it.

    That's pretty much it. You can get the longer coilovers for the drop bracket lift and crank them up to 3" of lift

    Only bad thing about cranking them up to 3" is you are putting more of an angle on your cv boots, tie rods etc which which isn't good and then your ride quality is gone.

    i used to run 9" suspension NO BODY lift. and 37" tires. Yes things will wear out quicker a lot quicker. I advise against it.
