Looks like it might be time for another group buy?
Let's get a headcount of the folks interested in a 3" PA body lift.



A stock Dakota is great place to start

Where are you going to get them from?
Summit has them for $156 (for my truck)
Maybe Leon at Truckperformance can hook us up.

Mason...Yes they have them...well I assume since there are 2001 trucks with them who post on this board!

Hey Patrick, like CantonDak said Gap Guards would be nice. How about $200 for the body lift and gapguards as a set, that would be a good deal!

With the lift and gap guards I could go for it too. If you could get a price that would be great.

Looked on the Group Buy Forum but didn't see a message string. I'd be interested as well. Kit & Guards sounds good to me.

This might be a stupid question... Is there a preferred order of modification if I'm going to do both the body lift and the 3" Suspension Lift?

I'd get the body lift first simply beause you can do it step by step. In other words
Body Lift
Bigger Tires and coil spacers
Rims (with correct backspacing for fabtech lift)
Fabtech Lift

After you put the body lift on you can put 2" coil spacers to clear 32's then when you get the money for the 3" fabtech the 32's will be a good size. With just the body lift you're looking at 31's max. Then when you get the 3" fabtech the 31's would be too small.
Other than economics their is really no other reason I can think of.

Working on it. Summit still has the best price. Nobody I spoke to yet can match them. I'm not giving up yet. Feel free to suggest vendors that might like to support a group buy.

Check out ebay search for "Dakota Lift"

They are made by Daystar and are usually $90. You can search google for Daystar coil spacers and find retailers. They area cheap alternative but they will wear out your balljoints quicker than stock. I wouldn't recommend them as a long term solution. Just keep them on there a couple months till you scrape up enough $ for the Fabtech.
