In general, im sure that doing a truck lift doesnt depend too much on what kind of truck you drive but just so you know, I drive a 94 GMC Sierra 1500 Extended Cab 5.7L 2WD Pickup. I am interested in getting a lift on it and am looking for some advise on what would be my best course of action.
I have noticed that a 3 inch lift kit costs about 200 dollars. Is a 3 inch lift even noticable? Does it warrant a new rim and tire change? Or would you just opt for the larger tires on the existing rims? What would something like this cost if I were to have someone do it for me?
If you choose to go the suspension route, what is a good lift size? I'm not looking to do any major off-roading, basically just cosmetically alter the look of the truck since trucks look better when they are raised and my truck as it is right now looks too close to the ground. Would you opt for a 6inch lift, more? What is the price range on a suspension lift? Would I also assume that I would need a new rim and tire change for this?
How much to brush guards go for these days? Any advise on picking a good one for a good price?
Thanks for the help. If you have any other good advice for me that i may have not known about to ask, toss it in. I'm not too knowledgable about lifting a truck.
I'm looking to spend at most 2500 dollars, preferably around 1000, but i'm wondering which route would be the best. Is this feasable?
Any help you can offer through website links or advise would be greatly appreciated!
