suspension? body?

hey,
i just bought a 1995 F-150, right now im running 31's on it, im hoping to get up to 35's, would you recommend a body or a suspension lift? i dont know a whole lot about them, so what exactly is the difference? and what are some general prices for both? any info would be much appreciated.

Suspension lift. Check out skyjacker at 4wheelparts.com. Skyjacker has one of the best kits going. you can get 2-4-6 inch suspension lift, or 2-3 body lift. Body lift is cheap, but lots of work, especially if the body mounts are stubborn. The suspension lift is very indimidating, it looks hard but it really isn't. My 4" superlift cost 700 shipped. They are not cheap. If you get a 4" lift or higher you will need extended brake lines...about 100 bucks. Do a search on this subject for lifts, even look back a few pages, there is tons of already mention information just sitting here.. no need to re-type it.


Primary rig is:
95' F-150 EB 300/6 5 spd with 4" Superlift, MSD, Ram Air, Gibson Exhaust, 32" BFG Muds
NEW PICS IN MY GALLERY!! :-)


Then theres:
88' F-250 Superduty 351 + c6
92' Thunderbird 3.8L V-6 FOR SALE!
95' Mercury Cougar 4.6L V-8
80' E-350 300/6 and a
3 spd column shifter baby.

The newest addition to the Ford family is a 99' Mustang GT 4.6L
