@ Skyjumper, Not sure want to do a suspension lift of 2-3 , not to much .. with the mud A/T tires ...

@ panda . the only time i used the 4wd was downhill with snow , we put it in 4lo...

this is all new to me, never have owned a bigger vehicle let alone one with the 4wd option, always been sports cars.. so its all been a learning process, but id like some advice on the best suspension kits, tire brands & sizes ...

suspension. if you're going small crank your t-bars and coil spacer. can fit 35s, but recommended 33s. want a good tire for your area i would recommend the good year duratracs, studable if you need it, and its in the middle of a m/t and an a/t. its also highly slipped for excellent snow and ice traction. and i recommend 4wd for a lot of stuff, unless you want a super challenge. driving a tank off road is enough of a challenge. one less to worry about. haha

I like my setup 5" lift with 35" and 20" rims
of course that's changing when winter breaks and I can install the 6" Fabtech.
Look into Procomp X AT nice middle ground between AT and MT
