...Which lift did you purchase??? Model #???
 






i got the 2" skyjacker coils part# sky132x, i opted to get the explorer pro comp add a leaf was 12 bucks cheaper part# exp13122, as well as the explorer pro comp shocks part#exp317510 for the front and part#exp324509 for the rear (they were buy 3 get one free) and the camber bushings exp594.
 






I bought the same exact thing minus camber bushing
 






im impressed with my lift so far. i bought the 4 inch lift from tough country ez ride suspension. i like it! it has some weird camber adjust ment thing where the front arms hook to the drop brackets. kinda weird but its cool. i have alot of front susp flex to..
 






so bgh1441 did your truck have any problems getting aligned after lifting it the two inches?? did you do the install or did a shop do it?? was there any issues i should be aware of?? i know its just a small lift but how do you like the ride/performance??
