OK. So I think I'm going with a 4" spindle (front) and 2" block (rear). Also want to get new 32s. I have new wheels sitting here in the box. I figure I should wait to mount the wheels until the lift is done, then do tires/wheels all at once? Doubt I can clear 32s on stock set up right now.
Also need new shocks- should be able to ride stock size in front but can't find info anywhere on whether or not 2" blocks will require different shock size in the rear.
If I can run stock shocks all around, I'll just replace those now- quick and easy. But if I need larger in back, I'll put that toward the end once the lift and tires and wheels are on...

Am I going about this right? Could 32s clear stock? Do I need new rear shocks?

So much info on this, but also so much conflicting info.

I would think that 32"s should fit fine with the lift you are planning. My 1997 has a factory 2 inch lift and factory size tires were 31" and no issues.

So here is a question (just part of my natural smart aleck nature coming through..)

is your name Ask the Masses or Ask them Asses :p

If you are really having trouble ordering a to-do list I'll sell you mine for $25. Not sure it will help much, it is mostly dishes and laundry.
