Im looking for a 1-3 inch (would prefer 2 or less because this is a daily driver). I want a set with shocks because I gotta replace them anyways. Anyone know where the cheapest one is?

if you use a 2" coil spacer and shackle lift you can add a larger lift right to it down the road - probably run about $100. look here...

you'll need to add shocks and larger tires - beware with stock rims you will experience some rubbing on the lower control arms with 31x10.50s

$175 shipped for the lift I have. You're not going to beat this price on the Rough Country budget lift.

Wow thanks I will be buying that. I just wanted around a 1-2" lift because its my Daily Driver. And I just want 30"s that wont rub and nothing bigger for gas mileage so I dont get screwed. Thank you very much for your post.
