NEED HELP STARTING OUT

[XLT4ME]

I just bought my 94 XLT and now i have a little over $1000 to spend on it for now to make her trail worthy. I have a set of 31x10.5x15 on it now but thats as far as i have gone till I can find the right lift kit. I was wondering what order should i make my mods in (like what should i buy first). I dont do to much heavy offroading like rock climbing or anything but i like a good hill or a few little jumps to get the tires off the ground . Any help as to what would be my best start off mod would really help any suggestions on a lift kit would be good to. thanks

Well I would just start by getting a cheap lift. Unless you are going to go bigger on tires. I would say for 1.5" of lift you can add some shackles to the rear leafs warrior 153 shackles roughly $80. Or you could go with an AAL(add-a-leaf) for the rear.

For the front you can pick up some F150 coil spacers. Can't remember the years for these. Do a search and you will get the info. For instance I watched the for sale board and got war-153 shackles and F150 spacers for $50 total.

If you want to add a body lift only go with a 2" kit less hassles than the 3".

I would say add a KN or KKM air filter and get a cat back exhaust system. That should get you started.
