Hello all, I have a 87 SWB 4x4 that I am wanting to install a 4” suspension lift with probably just some 33” tires. I would like to know what you guys recommend as the best lift that provides the most comfort, it is pretty much daily driver and will not be used for heavy off-roading.

Since we have already swapped PM's, my thread is just a few lines below this one. "87 V1500 2" Lift Advice" is the title. For some reason I cannot attach photos to a PM or I would have just sent you some there.

For the best ride possible there is custom coil overs from offroad design. Or custom leaf springs from offroad design, or even custom leaf springs from Deaver Spring. Then get some good shocks.

This was my last truck and probably the best riding Square Body of the 8 I've had. I've had Rancho and Skyjacker kits on previous trucks.

4' Tuff Country EZ Ride front springs and a 4" block in the rear. OEM 5/1 rear springs. Shocks were Tuff Country SX8000. I think the best thing to add is the Off Road Design front sway bar disconnect. It gets rid of the bind in the front end at the sway bar.
