Not necessarily, in some situations its beneficial having the little bit longer wheel base of the 4door trucks.

wrigley-those pics in your cardomain on page 5 are exactly what I am looking for. My quest for 35's has begun. I think I could fit them now in the rear, the fronts no way unless I only drove in a straight line.... Re: the pic of the blue sport with 38's, did he cut out the foglight holes in his bumper, looks good somewhat like what vroomzoomboom did to his.

techno-wild Limited. Nice, need a bumper and you are good to go. That truck was around $30k brand new. Who would have ever thought Limited's would get lifted and hit the trails back then.

Technoboy, what rocker trim do you have on your 98? Is that stock? Looks like a smaller profile, maybe because it's black - sort of disappears in the shadow a bit. I've seen several lifted rigs in this thread that appear to have some sort of low profile trim that covers the trim mounting holes in the rocker panelsm but does not appear to be a stock trim. I'd like to do something similar.

What are the specs on that lift, NBS? Also, I like the black rocker and fender trim - how did you do that?
