One more thing Nastnate . . . what are you running for a setup on your rig? Just the 1" body lift? ANy suspension? WHat size tires are those? Im assuming you have the green 99-00'? TRD with the rock sliders? Was looking at your website. I got the same truck. Am looking for what my truck will look like after my mods. ANyway, thanks.
yup, that's me. just was updating the site too
It's a 1" BL. No suspension lift yet.
The tires right now are 31" BFG A/T's, but I run 32" BFG M/T's when I'm off road, with little rubbing (removed mud flaps).
I haven't raised the bumper because I'm not sure if it's worth the time/effort/money. Besides, I'd like to get a different bumper anyway, so it'll be somewhat of an eyesore (at least to me) until I upgrade.
No real issues with the body lift since it was only a 1". I did have to unclamp some A/C crap on the left side under the hood so I wouldn't break the clamps, but that was it.
In hindsight, I should have gone with a 2". Just to give that little extra lift

but if you do that, be wary of the issues that come with that (shifters, misc hard lines, etc.)
My goal at my current budget is to run 1.5 - 2" suspension, 1" BL with 32" muds. That should be capable enough for what I want to do... at this time
Just comes down to how much to want to spend (more than 1" and you'll probably have to spend more to make it work).
