Well like the title states I have a grand in hand that i can spend on a lift and shocks and what not. I'm looking at the independent4x sport kit for $720 then spending the rest on anything else i may need for it. Has anyone bought this kit. I'm looking at getting 16" wheels with 285/75/16's. so the question is. if you had a $1000 to spend what would you get. and am i over paying for the kit at 720? could i piece it together and save a hundred bucks or more? oh and i'm looking for about a 3 inch lift. Thanks guys i know i'll get some good answers. I'm new here and already am pretty impressed.
