can some1 tell me all the description/parts/time required/difficulty of that one budget lift that always comes up that has the v-8 grand cherokee front springs and the dodge leafs or something. all info appreciated. p.s. would i be able to fit 30's with stock height, but trim the fenders?

First, the GC front springs are only gonna give you maybe an inch of lift. You can find some rear leafs from a s-10 or dakota and use a combination of them for different lift heights. You can fit 31's on stock if you trim your fenders. Right now I am running 31's with new HD leafs in back and grand cherokee coils up front. But am swapping that for a 3in. set up tomorrow. Check my album for pics of stock with 31's.

86 to 96 F150 front coils and Dakota rear leafs will give you around 3 1/2 inches

serch, serch and serch bro.. at google, here at the forum.. and the setup u're looking for is the budget boost?? like 2 inches with the zj v8 coils and the main rear from the dakota or the s10-blazer... you dont need big $$$ just looking arround, craigslist, pick and pull's, junkyards..
I found the s10 springs for free in a friends backyard, the zj springs from a tire shop for free with the insolators (like 3/4inch more).. Im doing a bastard pack in the back (like 4.5inch of lift more or less) and in front the spring and insolator with a 2inch spacers that cost me 10 bucks a piece!!!
maybe I was lucky.. LOL

Wow I didn't know you could use the f150 springs an Dakota leafs. That's a budget lift ha. Now of you can use f150 coils that would mean you could you 250 coils also correct cuz I know 250 coils give a bronco 4" lift
