But its fun Myt ruck will have a 10" 3rd coast suspension lift when I get tired of going fast. lifted looks pimp but I wouldnt do it with your truck I would drop it and put the 22s on it.

 

Yea, im still stuck in between on which to do. Either way would be good for me cause i would never use 4wd anyways. Im still looking around to see what i like more and to get some prices. Either way, i think it will look good.

 

lower cars, lift trucks- my 2.

lowered trucks are usually pretty impractical too

 

Well i always said if its 2wd, lower it and 4wd, lift it! I guess i kinda got off track somewhere. I just cant decide which one would be more fun. I guess lowering it on the 22's would be better for me gas mileage wise as i have to drive 45 miles rounds trip to work and back.... I still dont know though. I WILL NEVER BE SATISFIED!!! HAHAHA

 

i really dont like lowered trucks much- but an AWD or 4x4 truck truck would be cool

especiallly if it was boosted

 

Lowering will be cheaper.

Depends on the look you want and what you are going to do with it, I want my truck to handle decent so I put swaybars on it and its a 2WD so lifting wouldnt gain me much. Regular cabs look stupid if you lift them too much, they become taller then they are long and it looks like a toka truck. I would say do like a cheap lift block rear/spindle front and do a body lift then throw on some big tires and see how it looks.

 

i agree. i LOVE seen quad cab lifted trucks.

I think sky high lifts look silly overall, but 12inches on a reg cab just looks silly.

33-35'' tires is my max. I dont even want anything more than my 33s.

superlow trucks look silly too. Moderation is key.

 

2wd hubs don't like wheels over 35". I think a 38 would definitely be hell on a 2wd, not to mention you need to run a lot more than 10" to clear them. For your crewcab I'd go with a 7" Procomp or Fabtech, the 6" variety sucks because it uses a longer coil and a lift spindle. The lift spindle is fine, but the longer coil gives you bad balljoint angles which will cause premature wear. Also remember to regear too

 

Well if i lift it, ill just run 35's or maybe 36's so it will still be practical. Id like to run at least an 18" rim and maybe even a 20" rim. I want them to be wider than 12.5" so maybe a 14" wide tire or something like that. I just like the look when the tires stick out just a little. It makes the truck look much more aggressive. Too much just looks goofy though.

00silverado: Thanks for the info. Ill look into the 7" lift you suggested and see what i can do. If i can clear 36's that would be primo!! Well ill let you guys know what i end up doing. Ive been tossing the idea back and forth so im not going to jump into it this week. Ill wait a few more weeks so i know for sure what i want to do. Thanks for the help guys!!!

 

do a search, there was a guy here that lifted his 2wd 1500 cc, with some nice wheels too.... I tried searching for it but cant find it... maybe someone else remembers...
