If you can afford it go for all, except add a 2 inch body lift to it and get some 33's. Obviously not all at once since like you said the money has to roll in, but if you don't do it all the way, you will(maybe) regret it later and want to add more. I too am interested in that bumper, that will be sweet - especially if we paint it to match the trim!

oh i forgot to add that if i do the bumper first i can roll up on the 32's without the TT/Shackles.

Yeah that would work. You will just have to trim some of the grey on the back side in the front. When I put on my 33"s with the 2 TT/Shackles and 2" body I had to trim on the back side and also the lower corner of the airdam. With that new bumber there will be all sorts of room.

I say protection always comes first. Do either the bumper or sliders.

But keep in mind it will look kinda dumb with the bumper and little tires.

a little dumb for a short time is acceptable. But I say do the tires LAST (after you lift it). That will give you a chance to decide what size you want and how they will fit and if you want to lift it more. (unless you are more decisive than me). But, trust me you always want to go higher!

I'd say go with the rock sliders first. No matter where you wheel or how much clearence you have, these will always protect ya. Then I'd probably go with the lift and then whatever else. And with the sliders, your car won't look retarted without a lift. It will just look like the running boards on X's, so anyway, there's my $.02

You might consider if you are going to have a body lift on there before you go puting sliders on. It might be a pain to move them later, but I don't know, I haven't got mine yet either!

Anybody from OKC?:confused:

That's true, if your gettin a body lift, you should get that first, but if it's just the tt and shackles, I would still say go with the sliders first.
