4" lift

<< < (4/8) > >>

Axle:
From personal experience, long arm lifts suck on the road, but they rock offroad.  Just depends on what you get.

Here's my brand, Rock Krawler, in a complete 4" short arm system.  The only thing I think you would need in addition to the lift would be a slip yoke eliminator kit and cv driveshaft.  You can get a combo from Carolina Driveline for about $350 including shipping.  Cheapest deal anywhere, and it's quality stuff.  So I'd say with this setup, that brings your grand total to around $2000 after shipping and taxes.  The good news is Rock Krawler is in NY, so shipping is el cheapo and it only takes a couple of days to get here.  Rock Krawler also makes the same 4" system in a long arm.  www.rockkrawler.com,  www.carolinadriveline.com

you could, but shouldn't.  the stock wheels are too narrow unless you are planing on running skinny tires.  usally you can find a good package deal where you get some superswamper on rockcrawler black rims for around a 1000, give or take a hundred.  I recommend searching the fourms for some used, already mounted ones.  I picked up a set of 5 mounted bfg, km's 33X12.5 with crager soft eights for 750, and they were like new.  I'll keep my eyes open.  check www.cave76.org, there are a lot of good people over there with lots of extra stuff laying around!
