I'm new to the forum and was wondering if anybody near the Alamance County area would be able to lift my truck for me. I didnt want anything major, maybe a kit to give me 3 inches in the front and 1 in the back to even things out. I generally do my own work on the truck but I dont know anything about lifting it. Thanks for the help.
Edit: Its a 1996 shortbed, single cab. Feel free to message me prices.
 
you could even it out by raisin the torsian bar to make it sit flush..just go to your local shop or you can do it yourself.
 
Except a 3" body lift won't even things out. That and body lifts that big suck! To me, they just scream POSER!

Nah, IMO get the gap guards and the bumper lifts and you cant hardly tell. Besides for a fullsize truck that I seriously doubt will see any real offroad time there's no need for a full out suspension lift.
 
i didnt mean raise it 3 inches..just to make it sit flush..ive done it to 3 of my trucks...it hasnt effected anything...maybe you know something i dont though...

Well yea but he's talkin bout raisin it 3" you'd have to max out the torsion bars to get that, if you're just crankin em a little to level it out some yea it shouldnt really mess it up to bad.
 
yeah...i thought he was doing it just to make it sit even...anyway...if you put a body lift on it...its most likely going to sag anyway..

So you finally agree that full size trucks are for posers!:flipoff2:
