Need advice or suggestions

You'll have to give people time, not everyone is on 24/7. I'm sorry I can't help on vendors as I try to build for myself. Try to support local as if something goes wrong it's so much better to be face to face.

Oh I know I had bumped this thread yesterday lol. Anyways yea but believe it or not it's cheaper to order online than to go to a local shop here they just gouge you! You would think it would be cheaper since this is south Texas and its like 75% trucks down here but nope Anyways I've already decided to buy this kit I was just wondering what all else I should get and if the upgraded shocks are any better. And well yea online vendors or sponsors that are reputable are great I know of 1 or 2 that i had read about in similar threads but can't find them again lol.

Yeah, local is more expensive, they have overhead the online don't. But usually better service.
Good luck,

well they should have better service, not always the case though, alot of elitism sometimes in 4x4 shops especially when you pull in with a ranger lol.

I'll try but I get so into the work I forget lol. Kinda like the toolbox I'm doing right now. I cleaned it up, roughed up the surface, patched a big hole in the front, patched up 2 welds that cracked, re-riveted the lift shock thingy mount, changed the locks put new heavy duty hinges and is now being painted.

A little late, but I was gonna say body lift. They're good for fitting larger tires, which it seems is what you want. But post pics soon! Also, are you re-gearing? If so, get a body lift too and a size bigger tires before if you're already getting new gears.

Lol no I don't really wanna get anything bigger than the 31s I got right now. And I'll body lift after a suspension lift. I want something a little more functional than just for looks. Lift comes in today . Anyways not on a hurry to regear it's my dd and sometimes I needed to be able to get on the highway. Pretty happy where it is now in that respect, only thing I will do is get a locker :thumbup:

 

[killj0y]

Finally got it, looks pretty beefy :thumbup:

now do I try to get it done this weekend or next? I'll have a 4 day weekend next week for Easter
