to fit 35s

[the big blue bus]

i dont want the stuffed look so i will start with the body lift and if i need more clearance id do crank and block. the wheels are same bolt pattern so they should bolt right up. they are just black pro comp extreme alloys

and i wont be beating on it all the time. i will take it to trails and mud some times but not a whole lot

Take a look at bowtiefreak's sigpic. If I'm not mistaken, he's running 35 inch tires, or an equivalent with nearly 7 inches of lift or so. If you can achieve 6 or 7 inches of lift with a body lift + blocks, keys and/or TB crank, you'll probably be alright. I know suspension lifts are expensive, but remember, you get what you pay for. I can't afford to drop 1000+ on a suspension lift right now either, that's why I'm slowly (very slowly) putting money aside until I can afford it. Plus other aspects of my truck are more important to take care of first. If you can someday afford to get a suspension lift, you'll probably be happier with it. If you don't go offroad much, you may not want to drop the extra cash. I dunno just some things to keep in mind.

^^^yup, I'm around 7" right now on 35s.

my buddy right now has only crank and one inch block on his blazer with 295/75 16s wich are like 33s im guessing. the tires i might get measure more like 34 and i dont need it sky high or want it that way. if i end up getting the tires i will try a 3 inch bl first and if i need lil more clearance the block and crank. i just dont want to drop the money for a suspension life and i really dont like the way they look either with all of the drop down brakets and stuff

I used to run a 305/70/16 with no crank.

suspension lift looks WAY better than a body lift imo

 

[the big blue bus]

body lifts can look good too if you get gap guards imo. and if i had money i would mostlikely do a suspension but i dont see the need for a suspension lift kit

Well, good luck with everything. Remember, if you do get the big tires, to upgrade your gears as well, to compensate for the large diameter and weight of the wheels.

 

[the big blue bus]

gears would be done too. 410s or 456s? i will only ever run a 35 largest maybe 33s after those wore down

4.56, with the 4.10 you will want more. I run a 4.56 and kind of wish i did a 4.88. I push them with a 383 too.
