gotta bump this thread back to the top, suspension lift is the way to go and the great debate continues.

I just didn't like being able to see the frame under the truck. So I went with suspension.

Ok have read all thanks for all the info think I am going to go with the body lift. Don't do trail other than the occasional fire trail for the rare deer that I am to lazy to drag. Do have another question though as I am cheap. and the a fore mentioned lazy I have the 96 XLT 3.0L with manual transmission what is the biggest tire I can go with out changing gearing. Just want to make it look better with out going all crazy.
