whats better?? LIFT?
Suspension, but it cost more. Suspension lif gives you more ground clearance and you are able to have larger tires. A BL will not give you any better clearance, but will give your body lift and have the lifted look and be able to have larger tires.

a suspension doesnt give you more clearance, only bigger tires gives you bigger ground clearance
Doesn't a suspension lift everything up? Frame and all? So then weather you have bigger tires you still have more clearance for approach and departure and in between the frontsuspension and the rear axle, the only place you dont have any more clearance is the axles and front crossmember right?

Have seen many people add a torsion key along with their 3" spindles to get some added lift to fit up to a 35" tall tire; with minor trimming.
