I give up! Please suggest/design my lift!
I will first and foremost say I have "wasted" countless hours reading past posts and there is simply too many options and differing opinions to make a choice, so I will see if anybody reading this can remedy my sickness! I've got a 98 Limited with 115k and 265/75/16 Revos that are brand new and rub on the passengers side. I measured from the top of the wheel to the wheel well and got this: FL 11 3/8 FR 11 5/8 RL 10 3/8 RR 10 7/8. There is about 200 pounds of stereo equipment in the back, and I will have a Curt receiver put on very soon. I live in Minnesota and drive 75% pavement and 25% gravel, with my off road mainly consisting of some mud and fields, nothing too hardcore. I really don't like the sag I already see in the back, I'd like to have it leveled out or maybe the back even a touch high. I don't pull too often, but it does happen. My college student income can't afford the ever popular SwayAWay setup up front. I guess I should say I'd like 2-2.5" from the front and whatever it takes to put the back equal to that. As for shocks, I guess on road performance is most important, but I'd like something that could deal with the crappy washboard gravel roads and Minnesota potholes as well. This is a very long explanation, but the more I tell you the better suggestions I can get! Thanks in advance!

I have just installed Andy's setup. just picked it up from the shop today. i have 285/75/16 revos and the ride is great. All that is needed witht this tire is a 1"BL. Don't think about any other setup-this is THE WAY TO GO!!!

this is with a 1" body lift and a ton of stuff in the back - the back is usually about 1/2" higher than in these pics. i have downey coils, so they sag a touch more than the OME springs when weighted down.
