I'm just posting this because I don't think I was specific enough last time I asked and I didn't really get my question answered. I want to lift my 93 extended cab pickup but I need some suggestions. I'll admit that part of the reason is for looks but I also want more than a bracket lift because I want to do some trail riding and mudding but nothing extreme. And I would like to have either 31's or 33's. Which reminds me, what are the best tires for road and mud? I've had my eye on either bfg all terrains or bfg mud terrains. Money is also a big issue for me. Some advice would be appreciated, thanks.

 

If money is an issue, install ball joint spacers and do a zuk mod on the rear. I did both to my truck for under $100. Personally, i think if its your daily driver and you're only gonna play in the mud now and then, go for a good quality all terrain tire. Mud tires are noisy and wear out too quickly.

 

x2 ^^^^ all good advice

if you want "more than a bracket lift" you're looking at an sas, ball joint spacers are in the same category as a a bracket lift.

how much height do you want? 31's will fit stock, 33's with a little hammer and cut-off wheel work.

a bracket lift is completely acceptable for what you're looking to do. ( I also happen to have a brand new one for sale for about half price if interested haha)

Rough country 4 inch lift kit suspension $700? Shipped give or take. It's what I have On mine with 33's BFG MUD. Check crAigslist in your area for some tires there's good deals out there

 

you actually dont need any lift for 33's ive been runing them on mine with no rubbing, just cranked the t-bars 2" theres still room to go but makes the ride stiff

 

Yeah riding stiff out strain though on things I wouldn't recommend doing that method.

 

33s? on a 3rd gen? Theyll fit with just a pinch weld trim. No t-bar crank necessary...

The IFS is pretty capable, dont be so quick to hate.. Get some tires, then spend your money on gears, lockers and armor.

 

If your looking mainly for looks, I'd bracket lift or Bj space. If it were me personally I'd do Bj spacers and blocks. I got mine for 80$ new of a member on here and it was the best 80$ I ever spent

 

If you are interested in a Rough Country - PM me. I can get it to you quite a bit cheaper than $700 shipped!

 

Wish I would have listened to yall about a year ago lol. I lucked out and got a nice 93 single cab thats lifted about 7 inches but rides like a dream. Back when I made this post I think I just wanted to sit tall and wasnt really thinking about ride quality (I was a young and dumb teenager and yes that was only a year ago). Thanks for keeping me straight and keep an eye out for my new build thread I'll be posting soon!
