    I would do all the chrome and the wheels. Then if you dont like it on the wheels just take it off :)

    I want to lift my truck but don't want to spend all the money I have on 3" and up because I will also need to buy another set of tires and then gears. That'd chew through every last penny of mine and going into college next year i'll need that money.

    So whats the best route for 1"-1.5" of lift for a good price? Front coil spacers and rear AAL or longer shackles? Or something else?

    I will probably get new shocks because mine are 16 years old, would that do anything?

    Eh too much work :D if i plasti dip everything and the wheels dont seem to blend in well, then maybe ill do them.. or just trade for some black ones ha

    like me keying your truck right now :p hahah! just kidding dont ban me :eek:

    Going over 3" is just for looks, and arent good for your cv's or ball joints (assuming you dont have uniballs). Plus youd have to cut your crossmember to install something like a 6" fabtech lift. If you need new shocks anyways just get the set of 4 bilstein 5100s from downsouth motorsports for like $330. The rear ones will be long enough for a lift, and the front ones are adjustable lift up to 2.5 with stock coils. For rear i'd do an AAL if your stock leafs arent too bad :)

    3RZ Taco, if you were closer I would let you have those wheels for $150...


    This picture was taken with the new 5100's up front and the 5125's in the rear and I will be picking up some wheels on Craigslist today, so a picture to add tomorrow or today... stay tuned
