Lifting my 97

Are you talking about these??? They look pretty nice and their cheaper than the alcans, will these give me a 2-3 lift???

 

No these the Expos this is what i have and they are nice springs. They flex good bran new so broke in they should be really nice. I can wheel with 600+lbs of camping gear and my shell on without bottoming out. All around great springs they are kinda stiff if the beds empty so be aware of that. And they will give you over 3" of lift i got just about 5" but i got shackles too and they lift me 3/4"

That's my stance with 800+lbs in the bed

 

Im not really gonna be carrying any heavy objects in the back, just a tool box. Ill go off roading probably everyweek and it isnt gonna be hardcore just a couplemud pits and river running and occasional rocking. Do you think ill still need the expos???

 

And it says for 97 a
Ill need new front spring hangers and Ill have to move the rear shackles back one inch??? Is this true and how hard would this be???

 

i ask allpro if id need to mod my truck and they said no, they had ones that bolted right up.

And really its more what you think you'll need. Are you going to be armoring up your truck a ton too?

I know when i get done with my wheeler 5pk i think ill get the Expos cuz i plan on having lots of armor and a bed rack for a kinda trail rider/expedition truck.

 

I probably wont, ill put some brush guards on the side and a little bumper guard, if i get the expo and i dont have weight in the back will itmake my ride stiff???

They just bolt straight to the frame and did you install yours yourself???
