Ok,
I've been doing some looking around since I got my truck a few weeks ago. I bought a 2004 Frontier Desert Runner. I love the stock height of the DR. I know that the DR is a 2wd truck, but it sits on the 4wd frame & suspension.

I'm thinking about doing a body lift. I don't want to mess with a suspension lift or change the ride quality by messing with the torsion bars.

What are my options as far as doing a body lift? I'm sure there is a 2" and a 3" lift. I mainly want to fit some bigger tires under her. What is the biggest tire I could run with a 2" or 3" body lift?

If I keep it stock height, what is the biggest tire I could put on her with the stock wheels? I'm just exploring options to see whats out there and what other people have done.

If anyone has pics of modded DR's that would be great also. Thanks in advance for any help.
Chris

I saw the links posted and a few other kits as well. However I was also looking for some feedback from people who have used the kits. What did you like, what didn't you like, ease of installation, etc. Thanks.

If I could bo it over I would do a 3"body lift L&P Stage 3 Steering 33" tires and be done with it. The SL is ok but it will trash stock steering componets fast if you do a lot of off roading.
