Thanks for all the help everybody. This is what I'm planning on doing for my '93 Dakota. Tell me if somethings seems like a bad idea or won't fit or something.

3" Body lift (done)
2" Rough Country Lift
32/11.5/15 M/T tires on Rock Crawlers (or should I go 31/10.5/15?

Hey kevin,

Could you send me some pictures of your rig??? I was thinking of doing the same thing...Where did you find a 3" body lift for your truck? Did you use the one for a 4x4? I have heard that it will work, but I am not sure...Any help would be appreciated...

Thanks,

Josh

I used a TrailMaster 3" BL. Took it to an offroad some here in town and they had it on within 3 hrs. Only cost me $100.

If you get under there and trim some of the excess metal away from the tire turning radius, you could get 32x11.50 on it. The rear will be no problem. You could runa 35 out there easy. But the front just behind the tires is gonna be your clearence problem. The body mount will wanna rub on the tire at turn. Just take a grinder and grind the closest corner of the mount down. It wount hurt anything. Mines been like it for 4 years now. Also be careful on the rims your using. Get nothing with more than about 3.5in backspacing. I wanted to find a rim with a 2.75in backspacing to run 33 x10.50s. But then you have ball joint stresses. But the farther away you get the inside of the rim fornt the frame, the better off youll be tire clearence wise. Good Luck and post up some picts...
