    To DO or to UNDO

    I hate typing this because I am just killing a dead horse because every 3rd post is about this but I have to ask. Buying a 96 with 3" BL and 305's. The tires are going to need replacing. I want to run 35" Boggers. I don't want any bigger don't want any smaller.
    Now I am asking which you think is best not cheapest. I need to know if one is better than another or is the same thing?

    1. Take off the Body Lift and go with a 6" suspension lift?

    2. Keep the BL and just do Ford Keys and a block in the rear?

    Also I am down in Lake Charles working right now and someone made mention to there being an Interco Tire place down here where you can buy blemishes? How do I find out about this place?

    Also I have been on this site before but have been gone for a while. Nice to have a reason to be back I loved this site.

    6" suspension. Hands down, IMO. Looks better and retains factory geometry.

    go with the 6 susp and 35" boggies. I always thought those 35 x 10.5 boggers would be a kick a$$ tire...

    Man it is so hard from reading all these posts as to what fits and what hits and what needs trimming and OBS vs NBS glad I am set on 35's.

    I didn't think money was gonna be an issue but it may be so here are my thoughts.

    Already has 3" BL
    then I am gonna

    Front - Ford Keys
    Back - AAL instead of block with some Traction bars
    16X10 Rockcrawlers and 35X14X16 Boggers.

    That should give me a total of 5" of lift and not have to deal with trimming etc. Sound Right?

    Definitely be prepared to trim. Those boggers run true to size and 14.50 on a 10" rim is pretty wide on a 5" lift.
