total with renting a 10 ton gear puller for the installation set me back about $90

its a stiff ride but i think its worth it to be 4″ higher

My advice is the bigger the tires, the bigger the lift you'll need (the same the other way around...bigger lift, you need bigger tires), or else it just looks horrible, so any tires over 35 inches, get at least a 6 inch lift. Get a suspension lift definitely not a body lift. 6 inches will cost around a grand, if you get anything smaller, you will hardly notice that it is even lifted.<br><b>References : </b><br> I have an 02, same engine as yours but not 4×4, it has 37 inch tires and a 6 inch lift, and it could .
