I really wanted a body lift, but I was never interested in a 2" kit so I don't know what to do now I guess I will try and piece one together. But anyhow there are alot of perks to a bodylift like some have said you can run taller tires in effect giving even more ground clearance. The set up I want to run I don't think I feel as comfortable with running on a 2" instead of a 3" so for now I would be doing one but I say go for it.

The 3 inch is not completely dead. It is still in the works by another member if things line up...

Well that would be cool, I had done alot of research and stuff finding what I want to run with a 3" then heard it ws dead. I wasn't about to redue all that for a 2" I was just going to tough it out and piece something together so it will be cool if someone does decide to keep it going.

A 3" is pretty simple as long as you're willing to sacrifice front and rear bumpers. No problem if you're going custom anyway. Just gotta make the steering extension. I'd have made my own up if I wasn't feeling lazy at the time.
My preference for body over suspension comes from the fact that I've lost a ton of down travel in the front. I wouldn't mind having a little back.
