wlel if you wana go cheap and want to keep it a 2wd then just order the 3.5in fabtech spindle lift then get on ebay and order the 2in or 2.5in lift springs from springtech (( if you get 2in you dont have to replace your upper a arms )) if you get the 3in your going to have alot of problems like i had like my upper a arms hit my frame from time to time.. its annoying and not very good...
but the 3.5 in spindle id say is about 650$ and the 2in coils are about 120$
and 2in chevy shackles and a 3in block lift and youll look good.. so thats probly about 850-900$ for just the 5.5 suspension lift and then just get a 3in body lift.. get it from summitracing.com they are only like 140$ realy cheap and realy reliable.. youll clear 36's
i dont know why everyone is getting so mad about it.. its his truck if he wants to run 40's on a 2wd IFS then let him...
my only warning is large tires on spindles tend to break them.. if you abuse them...
but if you want 36's have at it i wana see some pictures when you get it done lol

well its gonna be a little while before it gets finished. i just took it off the road today. but the spindle breaking problem wont happen, i hope. im having a buddy of mine make some for me out of cast iron they weigh about 130 pounds a piece but i dont think they will break. over all its just a playtoy i dont really care what it looks like just so long as it will hold

130 lbs for a spindle? ****ttt
i would say a 2wd jeep front axle would be your best bet if you want to keep it 2wd and kinda cheap.
a sas isn't cheap, i was trying to keep mine under 2g for now... that didn't work very well haha
on a side note, does "4.0l<b>twins</b>" mean anything?
you dont have a set under the hood do you? lol
