That's awesome! Did you have a shop do it or did you? How much money did you put into it if you don't mind me asking? How does it ride compared to stock? That's exactly what I wanted to do to my rig but I shyed away from it

Looks good that is what I am planning on. Where did you get the 2" shackles cause Jigg's website is out of them. Also what size tires are you running on there? Looks awesome I like the wheels too.

Actually Jigg has some shackles back in. I think hes got the 1.25 and 1.5 inch shackles in. For the 2 inch ones hit up ebay,wait till jigg makes more,or lemme get some steel stock and ill make ya a set (just gotta figure out how much they cost to make).

Thanks All.

-I found the body lift for $50 (Craigslist ROCKS!)
-The shackles were bought at 4 Wheel Parts $80 with shipping and tax.
-The rims were $100 ( Craigslist again...)

Tires arent in the greates condition they have about 10,000 miles left on them. I really like the tires when they have tread. Too bad they arent made anymore... I did all the work myself. The shop wanted $200 to install my BL!! It took me about a month to do all this, becauseits still my daily.

Tire size is 31 x10.5 x 15 they are a little smaller that my spare 31 in tire.

I cant tell a difference in the ride quality. I have stiff shocks on here so the t-bar crank is not noticable.

This is a picture of stock:
