What do you guys recommend for any type of vehicle lifting Suspension or Body? I'm trying to go the best possible route. Just not sure which way to go. Cause of pricing and everything else.

cheapness+easy tire clearance=body lifts
ground clearance as well as tire clearance=suspension lifts--may also change the way the truck rides (stiff/soft)
if it was my cash and i had a nice chunk i would go for a 2" body first, and if thats not enough step it up with maybe a 3" suspension lift to pick it up nicely [8D]

You really need the metal sleeves that come in the body lift blocks, or else your bolt will chew through the puck.

The one they display for me in jcwhitney says 209. I don't know why is there that much of a difference between 98 and 99?
Just read down a little farther must be cause it includes the bumper brackets as well.

Anybody know the difference between the 95-97 and the 98 to 03? There is almost a $100 difference between the 2 kits. Or is this something I would have to ask summit about?
