Great articles, experiments on K&N, deckplate mods, FIPKs, etc, and actual dyno tests to prove the data.

Hidey-ho, neighbor and anyone looking to do a lift is to ask these simple questions.
1) How much are you willing to spend
2) What type of off roading are you going to do
3) What type of driver are you
4) Is your truck a DD or trailer rig
5) Do you plan to haul stuff and how much
6) Did your wife/gf approve the purchase


Use these links below to read and understand....

CustomTaco's only piece of good info for off roaders.

Parks Offroad.com-installation and opinions

Body Lifts - answers by 4crawler.com

Lift - - the question - click here.

LEaf spring opinion poll.

Cams vs Hoes - mandatory reading

Toyota.off-road.com CO-Shock comparision

Downey-Off Road, CLick on to Suspension then the model year of your truck

UCA information

Shackle's anyone? - click here.

Shackle's anyone part II? - click here.

Timbren Bump Stops - click here.

That should be it...but to read, learn, listen and if possible, ride with some guys that have different systems to see how they like it and how it handles.

Good Luck!
