Yes, you can run a body lift after. Suspension and body lifts are different.

The lift you want is the OMERUN3 from that website above.
It has everything you need minus the panhard bar relocator bracket. The bracket doesnt cost that much more. You should also (don't HAVE to, but it is advisable) get a Diff Drop kit... also pretty inexpensive for the added peace of mind. You can use your existing shocks with this lift if you want to.

Springs are always better than spacers my friend... and you can add a body lift later if you like.

See the pics on the link in my sig for an idea of what the lift I'm talking about looks like. I got the OME 882's for the front and 891's for the rear. I run a winch up front and a lot of gear in the back with a drawer system. I would have run these springs anyway.. I like the "sturdy" feel.

Good luck.

James

Gonzo97 - I am running that lift that you are looking at. I do like the lift, however I would probably go with the springs if I were to do it all over again. The spacer lift runs well on and off road, but its a little more stiff than I would've liked. Go with the springs, throw on the BL as well, and as mentioned above, get the Diff Drop as well!

Kinda got off topic, but then again, it is your thread...

There are several racks out there to choose from. Mine is a ROLA rack. Do a quick google search and you'll find plenty. Search for ROLA, Yakima, Thule, Surco, Wilderness Racks, etc...
