    Looking to add a small lift to our 96 xtra cab, 2.7, five speed, 4x4 with 126k miles.Currently running 31x10.5x15 tires not looking to go any larger just gain some distance between tire and body (no body lifts). Truck needs new rear leaf packs and has the driver side lean.This truck is driven 95% on paved roads and the rest on mainly flat gravel or sand roads carrying NO extra weight.Looking for the best ride based on our use of the truck without getting into the King shock price point. This truck is not my dd but i do find myself in it more with diesel @ $5.00 a gal here in Florida. I read through this forum as time permits on different lifts and the general rule of thumb seems to be a lot of complaints about the lift being to stiff. I would like to avoid being on this list.Tried to attach a couple photos of the truck but could not get them to attach to this thread.
    Thanks
    Todd

    If you get a lift the struts gotta be more longer or else you will have no cushion
