    Good luck with that. Let us know how it goes.

    If you get time, post some before and after pictures in the Chevy Gallery. Just click "Gallery" on the top menu.

    I am looking to put a lift on my z71. What should I go with ... the suspension or the body lift? I like the suspension much better but the money is out the wang. And I am only looking at a 3" and if I get that would size tires would look good for it?

    what do you have to change when lifting a truck like just a 2-3 inch lift?
