So here it goes bought this truck for $200 bucks cant beat that im more into mopars have a 2wd dakota but want to keep it cheap as in i need info on the lift i have stock cheap coils is that ok for lift? and have no problem trimming the crap outta her

her she is
 
cant get pics up im new to this.
 
I'm not really sure what your question is about... Are you asking if the stock suspension is fine for off roading? Or what coils you can get cheap for more lift? or something else?

To post photos up you have to have it uploaded to another website, such as faceook or car domain or photo bucket, then you right click the image go down to properties and copy the Address URL, Click the add picture button and paste it on.
 
just if i can run jeep coils for a good trail rig or should i look at getting a lift
 
and i mean i have a set of jeep coils will that work?
 
I talked to him but just dont know if that way is worth going cause it gives me no lift but more travel is it worth it?
 
well what is your main goal, to fit larger tires for added differential clearance or to modify your suspension for maximum flexibility? if you cut your fenders (which by the sounds of it is how things will probably go down) then you can fit larger tires without a lift kit. but once you put the larger tires on youre still limited by the stock suspension (i.e. straight line driving with MINIMAL wheel travel). if you only drive in mud then the jeep coils wont do much for you, but if youre riding trails they will help you keep all 4 or at least 3 wheels on the gound most of the time. with out installing a 'lift' kit you can maintain your stock steering set up, keep your low center of gravity so that your rig wont be so 'tippy', and you wont have to spend hours on your back trying to cut the rivets out of your frame to install the lift brackets that are going to need reinforcing anyways. hope that helps a little
