    No, I saw that on the hoist in a buddies shop. They were doing some work on it for a car lot. They called it a suspension lift by Jenga. No, my buddies shop didn't do the lift.

    Just depends on what your pinion angle is after you out the blocks. Gotta measure before and after

    Buy a proper lift before you have crap fall apart and total your truck. But thats just my opinion.

    Just toss a bunch of AALs on there and some rear coilovers.

    Joked aside, I run a tsb leaf pack, a toytec AAL, and a 1.5 inch block for about 3.5 inches of lift and wheel it on moderate trails. No problems so far. So you might want to consider some combo like that.

    I would love a dakar or other after market pack, but it's not in the budget right now. High-quality blocks are fine as long as they aren't too big.
