Umm for lift options I would need to know if your 2wd or 4wd. But if I remember correctly you are 2wd. No shackles just do spindles. about 330. I dont know anything about camo border. I need pictures.

Why would he do spindles? Thats for the front, obviously he wants to lift the rear. 2wd or 4wd has nothing to do with it.

Shackles you can get from Summit racing for around 40-50 if I remember correctly.

Well if he was going to lift his truck I would do spindles which is 2wd as you know. I was not for sure if he wanted To lift the front and back. So I said a possibly for the front.

You said no shackles just do spindles. If he's asking about shackles that means he wants to lift the rear.

To the OP: You should have said that! You have a couple different choices. Theres a 5.5" fabtech kit you can get that has spindles, coils and arms or the 3" kit that is just spindles I think.

Im 2wd and im working on getting my truck spindles for the front and AAL in the back. Im also going with the 3" body lift and will be on 33's when im all done. You can check out my project log in the project log forum.

If you do go with 33's you would want to re gear to a 8.8 with 4.10's

3.0? Not for sure. But I am sure It would help some. 04blackedge is running 4.10s with 33s and a 3.0. If you are a 4.0 You will be fine.

He can do shackles and coil spacer to gain 2" or so all the way around and not spend to much.
