Read that thread. Read!

Just read it. It will answer all your questions!

A 4.5" lift with most of what youre going to need, not including tires, also that isnt a POS lift is gonna be like 1k at the low end.

Thats SYE, drive shaft, lift, LCAs, brake lines, relocation brackets, track bar basically.

So when you added your 3 inch lift kit what brand was it, or what brand do you recommend? and with the 3 inch suspension kit would you have to adjust any of the steering or aftermarket stuff besides the kit itself??

I don't know if I should just go for 3.5 and stay there or go up to 4 or 4.5. I think 4 is a nice height.

Thank you for your help, no need to give me crap, I am sorry if I bothered you. I was not 100% on what you were all saying, I was just getting used to the website. Yea sure I was probably worse than both you but do you have to make fun of me? I am trying here to do the job right, to educate myself as much as possible and I am getting crap from you all, sorry.

I tried to help, but you wouldnt slow down for two seconds to actually read what i said.

Just read through those pages of that link. Youll learn a whole lot. Then if you still have a few questions, google it. Then ask questions on that thread about lifts and whats involved.

Youre in the wrong section in all honesty. This thread is for people that live in Maryland. Were glad to help, just know we may not help a lot since you arent asking in the correct fashion.
