Thanks for all your help, I was looking for a relatively cheap, small lift. Not about to spend $600+ on it.If I could put some strut mount spacers, or some type of spacer to provide a cheap lift I would do it. So I figure I will be looking into some wider tires when i but new ones. Instead of 255, I'll try some 265's.Now if my mechanic and I could find out what is making all the leaks, that's another story. Should be trannyfluid b/c it's red, but can't seem to find anything. Nissan says I have an oil, transmission, and power steering leak. Can they find out where it's coming from, NO. So heck with it, every oil change let them keep filling them up for free.

Thanks again

If you are looking for like a 1" lift cheap the strut spacers aren't bad, but you have to find someone that has them for sale, which can be a pain in the arse b/c they are custom made, or you can comission (or is it spelled commission?) someone to make 'em for you.

Like I've said on here before you can go with just the 2" AC lift coils which would run you like $360.

You can run a 31x10.5 without any lift (I did at least)

sorry to be alittle slow with your last message, but when you say31 X 10.5, I am guessing that is tire size?

265/31/10.5?

Yeah thats a tire size. I think the measurements are something like 265X70Rx16 when its a 16"rim but if you run a 15" rim it'll just say 31x10.5x15 if you would go with like some BFGoodrich Allterrains or Mudterrains

I ran 31x10.5x15 BFG Mudterrains on stock rims with stock suspension for a good while without any problems: (this picture is from like 3 years ago)

i have 16" stock rims. Going to stay with them, and probably goingto stick with Michelins. Have 66k on them now and I like them a lot. the bridgestones that came with the truck lasted only 40k and they wereshowing their wear.
