is there a lift kit out there that has good travel and good flex? i can run 33s now on the stock suspension im just tired of eating the fenders and i dont want to butcher the sheet metal up to make it turn with out getting into a bind. opinions of skyjackers or rough country lifts?

Im not looking to spend a fortune either.
 
Take your rear springs off and put them in the front. Go to junk yard and get some 63" chevy springs for the rear. You will have to move the front spring hanger on the rear, get some longer brake lines and you will probably want to go to hi steer. But all that can be done for less than $500.

it doesnt have to be converted to hi steer to operate right? when moving the rears to the front do you have to change anything or is it a direct swap?
 
if u put rears up front, u will either need histeer or cut and shorten the draglink that runs from box to axle. i believe u wud be better off and safer with histeer. and u also need banana shackles, bc the stock front shackles will rub the bottom of frame, well mine did. i believe them are the only problems i ran into.
 
I would say for budget options go on frontier4x4.com and oreder front and rear springs from trail gear. Should be free shipping if you order both and have everything you need.
