HA Thanks ABN31B i was doing some window shopping on rims and tires last night, you must have read my mind. tring to decide on how to get my 98 up in the air a bit to squease some bfg's underneath it. where did you get the prices at for the shackles & T-bar lift, as well as the body lift? would like to start there for priceing.

A lot of the guys around here use a 2" body lift from Performance Accessories. For your 98 it'll cost ya $260.99 (plus shipping I'd assume) Link here. As far as install goes, you can do it yourself with some buddys in your driveway if you have the tools. Just follow the directions and you'll be set.
PA also sells shackles. The thing is with shackles is if you buy say a 2" set, you'll actually only get somwhere in the neighborhood of 1"-1.25" of lift, so keep that in mind. I'd try ebay for a set of shackles, that's generally the cheapest place.
As far as T-Bar cranking, you can safely get 1"-1.5" of front end lift for absolutely FREE!!!!! Just twist the bolts.

Those shackles look fine. That's the good thing about shackles, it's a cheap inch or so of lift.
And btw, to link something you just copy the url of the page you want to link and then while posting, highlight the text that you want to be linked and hit the little button at the top of the text box that looks like a globe and paste the url in it.
For example in my previous post, I copied the url of the website, hit new reply on the forum, typed in "link here", highlighted that, and hit the earth looking button and pasted the url into the box that popped up. Hope that helps.
