Default S10 Lifts and Grill Gaurds

Anyone done a small suspension lift on their S10 and have pics? Also, same with a black grill gaurd/ brush gaurd, w/e u wanna call it, with pics? I want one for my pewter '01 Ext. cab S10, but I don't know how good it will look. Plus I just got some BFGOODRICH All terrains one size up from stock but i think it would look better raised an inch or 2. Any suggestions/comments?

i have put body lifts on that were pretty easy and cheap. i have also put a 2-3" superlift on a 00 s-10 which consits of upper a arms and torson keys. i wasn't very fond of it because it didn't lift that much and was hard to align. I think all i could put on the truck with out rubbing was a 31". The safari type grill guards look great on s10's.

Personally I've never been fond of body lifts. Unfortunatly I cant offer any suggestions as to suspension lifts for a 4wd but I've got a 3" Fabtech on my '94 2wd and it works just fine. There should be plenty of lifts available out there for S10 4wds though, although if it's a ZR2 model it'll be harder to find.

isnt the zr2 model the 4x4 "off-road" package? and if im wrong why would it be harder to find?
