I am lookin at an 88 standard cab shortbed 4x4 pickup. How capable would it be w./ a 1in bl some 31x11.5 LTBs on some 15x8in beadlocks a welded rear and a chevy spring conversion utilizing the dual shackle method?

I am shootin for the cheap sleeper from hell

 

The pickups are pretty capable stock for a mild wheeler.

 

could fit 33x10.50 easily. Might need some BJ spacers to match the lift from the Chevy's.

Would be pretty damn capable. I've seen some trucks with very little lift and 32's or 33's and locked do some amazing things
