start with some of the basics, painting the interior pieces, different wheels, cd player/sound system, if your really into camping, I would suggest a camper shell, or a tonnuea cover. lose the mud flaps, if you havent already, add wind deflectors to the windows, tint the windows......

Ok, so you want to lift it... is it a 2WD? If so... do this lift. It is the Skyjacker 6". Look at the post, and scroll down to see the pics, and the descriptions.

Post of my pics...

If you want any other suggestions, feel free to PM me....

I have the stock 94 on the left. I will be doing the same thing to mine

That kist is only 2 g's. The only thing you need after it is shocks. That's it. It is all inclusive.

Well, I paid 800 for my truck 3 years ago in June. It is a salvage title, and I am saving up for that, and I am worse off than you. I also have to save money for my son to come visit in the summer, so If it is possible for me to do it, I know ANYONE can. It seems like alot of money upfront, but if you make smaller goals, like 300 every pay check or whatever you can afford to put asside, it won't take that long to get there. The kit is well worth the money!
