3" lift

I was thinking of doing a 3" lift on my 94 ranger but was woundering how hard is it to do yourself ? right now i have 31x10.5x15 tires. would this lift level the truck out or is there a cheaper way of doing it? I would be doing the lift after i get new ball joints and new tires.

That is a good price on a lift kit, don't cheap out on quality. That will level the truck and do it safely. Get a buddy and make a weekend project out of it.

That is a good price! but say you put that on and a 3" body lift what would be the biggest tires you could put under the truck after both lifts

whitebassbenny - note that the lift that you posted does not include shocks or a steering stabilizer. Also there are cheaper ways to level your truck such as leveling coils from Rough Country and Skyjacker . But if you want to put larger tires on your truck you will have to go with the lift kit.

well i got looking into this lift again. It would level it and lift it some to. I looked at some shocks and it was looking at around $100 for them. Any other advice on this lift?
