yea... but I wouldnt put a 2 inch on it.... all the 2 inch lift kits do is crank your t-bars and replace the upper control arms.... its hell on the front end.... they also come with warnings that read "not for hard off-road use".... if ur just wanting it for looks it would be good, but if its for play...... not a good idea....

So if I go with a 2 inch suspension lift you think it will really lift me 2 inches. I just want it for looks but there will be times when I will do minor off roading, like this would be seldom. What are the risks I face if I do this?

k..... mudsliner.... trailmaster makes a very good 5" lift for your truck.. .I would reccomend checking it out.......


bmx.... the 2 inch lifts kill your ball joints, and also puts your cv shafts a extremely dangerous angles. If you get them in a bind you could break them. It cranks your t-bars to the max and kills your ride quality.... if you go with something like a 5 inch it comes with drop brackets for everything. The 2 inch lift produced by any company isnt a great idea... I mean they are alright, but be careful.

to be honest with you... a body lift is probably your best bet...
