Okay so I'm planning my summer build and trying to figure out what to do. I want to do a 6 inch suspension lift, but don't really know the specifics. I have seen the rough country kit for 500 bucks in round numbers which looks good. On the other hand though I have seen people like to do shackle flips and all of that fun stuff. Which is better and which is less money? I dont want to be cheap but at the same time I cant be be breaking the bank. Another general question mark I have is axles... I have a stock 10.5 inch 14 bolt in the rear and Dana 44 up front. I want to run 37-38 inch tires, will the Dana 44 hold up? I do some light wheeling but never really beat her up. (I have a three inch body so I should clear that size tire) Also back to the shackle flip versus full lift kit question, I am a snowmobiler and I do have a 700 pound sled in there for much of the winter. Does that effect anything?
