Best susp. setup for $1500?
#1
Hey guys, after WAY too long ( over 2 yrs) ive decided to finally lift my truck and get some tires; 285's i hope. Here in FL we've got alot of sand and some mud too, so thats mostly what ill be dealing with.
My truck is an 05 v8 se 4x4; and iive done a fair bit of offroading locally and she's gotten stuck only once .
But i definately want to lift it 3-4" and get some fresh rubber, but for now im only concerned with the suspension parts.
I was thinking of going with the standard 3" OME suspp. lift and then possibly a 1" Roger Brown bodylift. Could I get some opinions on that plz? Im guessing, that with this setup AND some trimmage of the fendar then clearing 33's shouldnt be too much of an issue.
These two parts bring the grand total up to less than 1k, not including labor. So i was thinking, would it not also be nice to get a new set of UCA's? I believe that these will also improve clearance, amongst other things? However, Im not sure that there are a set of $500 UCA"s out there, so im just wanting to see what yall think.
Im open to suggestions and opinions! Thanks
Ray
btw- I wish my truck could look like bala de platas for that price! scheisse!

Sorry, the truck is an o5 4runner Sport Edition 4x4 v8. The donahoes are $1k apiece f & r, and last time I checked the TC UCA's were also out of my range :-( unfortunatly. That setup is probably closer to a $3000 setup and I dont doubt for a second that it looks sick as hell! Thx
trd: is there anything in particular there I should be looking at? lots of info
Thanks for the input guys!
