Lifting my truck!
Well Alon is gonna be sending me his Fabtech spindles this week, its a start.
1. I'm gonna order Pro Comp AAL's from summit sometime this week probably.
2. I'm gonna order Cam and bolt allignment kit from offroad warehouse
3. I have 3" blocks in the garage to replace the 2" ones i got now.
4. I already have 15x8 crawlers so i dont need new wheels.
5. I'll probably buy Rancho RS9000's all the way around unless anybody has a better suggestion for around the same money.
6. Im gonna run my 31's until i have money for PA lift and regearing, then i wanna get 35's or 36's.
7. I'll be installing it myself, with some help too.
Anything im forgetting?

Shackles, very important, will give you another inch or two of lift. IMO, I would run em, but you don't have to.
And when you do your AAL's, make sure you have a pair of vise grips, it's a PITA, and grease the leaves while your at it, and might as well paint while your down there!! Use that por15 stuff on your frame! Thats what I gotta do next
Good luck!!!!

By replacing the block you lose the factory bumpstop, which means you can bottom out your shocks and mess some stuff up...thats what I heard!!

these are all of the combonations of rear lift ive had on my truck
1. Just 3 inch blocks
2. Small AAl
3. Small AAL and Blocks
4. Small AAl and Shackles
the best by far is the 4th one by looks and performance... #'s 1-3 werent ever level with the front and it was stiff in the back . I thought it was annoying how stiff it was driving. When i had my blocks in all i ever heard were bad stories about how they were dangerous... Please take my word for it AAl and Shackles are the way to go for sure...
