I can get the rear up w/ the air bag...and found a pair of air shocks that are 14" that will fit the front...so I cold get enough "up" to put on some bigger tires ( say 31.5 10.50's similar)
any ideas will be appreciated...t
I have posted this before...but here again is the truck...

nice truck, I would avoid the body lift... If you only need a little lift I would add-a-leaf for the front and rear or use a zero rate leaf for the same affect. My add-a leaf gained 1.5" before weight was put back on...
You will need to probably get new U-bolts but your shocks should still be find. Using airshocks and bags will make it drive like a 1ton and only wear out in the long run.
