which lift for my truck? [pic]

[bobbyavidity]

I cant decide if I want to get a 2" front 1" rear cornfed lift or a 1" front leveling kit. Below is a picture of my truck. I just took off the running boards which definitely gives it a more agressive look. the 1" front leveling kit isn't thattt much less money than the 2"/1", but after seeing the 1" pictures i don't know if i can justify the money for the slight difference, but I'm not sure if the 2"/1" will make it look overdone. Im just looking for a moderate lift/leveling kit. Anyone got some input?

I would look here, FJC forums and elsewhere for a used 2/1. There's nothing to wear so used is ok. Many start with 2/1 and go to OME or coilovers.

okay thanks! the CF new is $270 so a used one should be quite a bit less i'd think.

They generally sell for $200-$250 used. As chris mentioned, they cannot wear. They are chunks of metal/ plastic. Used are the same as new.

Check out what Chris did with the FJC springs. They will give you a little lift and a little stiffer ride (less roll). Get the springs with a one inch front leveler and maybe that would suit your need. I found a deal that I should be recieving anyday now. 2 stock rear FJC shocks, 4 stock FJC springs, and aluminum 1" spacer for the front. $100 shipped. The guy put a lift on his FJ. I will try to post some before and after pics within a week or two.

Thats not a bad idea either. You gotta tell me how it rides and definitely post pictures!

I can make you any size you want. The 2/1 just lifts and levels you at the same time, and yes, the 2/1 stills looks good with stock tires.

a) Matter of opinion. My stock tires looked like little doughnuts after my first lift (2/1). You'll need a 265/70/17 to fit a 2/1 nicely.

b) Beware his shipping times!!!

Thanks everyone! And Jason, I'm ordering one right now :]

2"/1"....it'll be awhile but when it's all done i'll be sure to post pictures!
