well. where to start...
a budget boost is the cheapest and will not really give you any added chassi clearance, but the body will sithigher (i opted for this one for now) doing an add a leaf (AAL) is a cheaper way to get the sag out of your *** end, but the AAL's generally sag too... and doing separate parts of a lift at different times isnt the best, either. your best bet if your gonna drop cash is to get a lift with full leafs, no AAL's... its pricier, but for a reason: its better. if your serious about your off roading, then a 4.5" long arm is a good place to start. there is a small list of other things that go with a lift taller that 3 or so inches... they all cost money too.... JY is an option, and there is anything inbetween... this could cost you anywhere from like 500, to 2000... your call depending on quality, and condition (new/used).... good luck...
