Just out of Curiosity here, would there happen to be a link or anything for the solid axle swap (9'' lift)
(not saying I'm wanting it, I'm just curious)

Also, if I were to get a 6" lift with a 3" BL would that clear 35's on 10" rims?
Or would wheel spacers be required?

I think fabtech makes a 4" lift for 2wd and then you could get a 2" body lift, orrrrrrr you could do an axle flip with blocks and put a solid axle up front and just not hook it up....

You can do what I'm doing and go with 3" spindles and moog 5664 springs. I should be getting about 4.25" of lift.

Well if I'm gonna go as far as putting a solid axle I'm gonna do the complete conversion. I guess ill just do a small lift for now with 31s or the fabtech lift. Then do the conversion when I get a new truck. I heard the SFA's drive like s**t on the road

I've been doing a lot of reading on this and I think it really depends on what springs you use.

Im going to be installing a 2 inch suspension and 2 inch body lift.. the list says i should be able to fit 32's with some trimming but i was just wondering if i should go with 15x8 or 15x10 for wheels and what amount of backspacing would work best
