    3" body lift, front end is a 3rd gen not a 2nd
    So i had a 3"body lift put on and the stupid spacers fell all the way down to the bottom.... Not good especially since the shocks are maxed out. ... Also no good . Soooo what suspension should i get now... I believe i need to go with a bigger lift but how much? (I dont want another body lift(F*+@ spacers) i want a suspension lift. Its a 1993 4WD 3.0 sr5 5spd and brand new 33" tires....

    And damnit theres no trade roof racks i can find.... Any idead rather than to buy a welder and make my own. I dont have time for that

    Get rid of the body lift and you really do not need more than a 2 to 3 inch suspension lift fit 33's.

    I totally agree, there's never a good lift long term and thingd will break way fast. Don't get me wrong, I love the look, but it's expensive to maintain if you want bullet proof

    Definitely ditch the BL, but also look at reality. What condition is your rig in? Evaluate before you start throwing Benjamin’s. They add up fast.
