 Subject: `96 (and older) Suspension lift
IP: Logged
Message:
Doing some surfing looking for a skid plate for mine (Trailmaster says they no longer make it) and I come across this site listing the only kit out there for $1,673.38 and free shipping. That, boys and girls, is probably as cheap you will find one for the old Dakotas. Bear in mind you will also need aftermarket wheels with less backspacing (only 3.5" vice the stock 5.5"). Just here to help. Cheers!

That seems to be correct in all aspects bill, cause i paid close to 1800.00 for the lift and that was quite a while back,so that is a damm good price!! and the backspacing on my rims are 3.75 and i had to crank the torsion bars all the way up to clear the tiny wheel wells on the gen II truck, just to comfortably fit the 32s, although the swamper 32 is the same size as the bfg 33, it looks like i've got alot of room but when your off the road you'd be surprised how much room you need to keep the tire from rubbing.

Amen Brother(!) on the amount of lift needed to clear bigger tires offroad...I did manage to get a bit of extra room by installing the Glassworks fiberglass fenders. They expose more wheel well, but gave me another inch or two at the rear of the opening. With the fenders, suspension lift and 2" body lift, I am comfortably clearing BFG 33x10.5s.
