Re: body lift and tires
here is what you should do... drive the truck.. consider it a blessing, be thankful that you dont have to pay much for it... take this time to save money.... and save your ass off.. then once you are emancipated (spelling) from your parents, you can buy whatever you want.
this is what i did... i drove a 87 dodge turd brown full size van... it was a PIECE, NO girls would ride anywhere with me in it.. she had a leaky manifold, the carb fell off (literally) one day, she had no insulation and was noisy as a son-of-a-gun. but she got me where i needed to go.. oh ya not to mention 9 mpg.
i saved my ass off and bought a 93 4runner and now its on 33 and in 2 weeks will be on 35's with a solid axle and a bunch of other shit.
