welcome skabanger. To answer your question yes you can lift these trucks a LOT of ppl on here seem to have the 4x4's and have lifted them one that comes to mind is blkbuty ( I think that is what his screen name is but if you do some searches on lifts and bigger tires on this forum you will find plenty of info

i would definitely recommend the truck, you can do a lot of work to it, including a lift. Aftermarket mods, however, are as personal as your name. You can add nothing but a bug deflector or you can bling it out (hate that word) with 28" wheels (exaggerating of course) and chrome out the entire bed if you want. I wouldn't, but upgrade to your hearts (and wallets) content.
