hey all i have just bought my first sierra and its a 1998 coily. Im wanting to lift it up abit and have found these 2 kits on ebay and what your thoughts and what you are using?
Web Page Name
i have noticed with the first kit they use extended front shocks but it doesnt say they use extended rear ones.
Web Page Name
I have also just bought some 30x9.5r15 muddies and want to buy some black sunnies and was wondering what is a good offset and width to run?
Cheers Wade

You wont be able to fit the 30s on there without them scrubbing on flex with a 2 inch suspention lift. Go the ultima lift, got it in my coily and never had a problem

best bet if you want to go for 30's is 2inch body lift, ask justcruizin.
I had 15 x 7 with the F100 offset, not sure how much it actually is but with 30's they stuck out of my guards by about 4-5cm's.
I got mine from a place at strathpine, $65 a rim for white, $75 a rim for black. Pm if you want details

x2 Get Body lift as well. 30's will be fine then, even 31's

the suzistore, blue pac kit and ultima (shock & spring) kits all have ultima shocks in them. Google blue pac you will see they make ultima shocks. I also emailed suzistore and they said they use ultima shocks in thier kit.
I think there are different springs in all the kits. One has king springs and one has blue pac's spring.

Honestly? Don't bother with those ebay specials.
You save a couple of hundred over a decent set of Dobbies or Kings, but you pay for them in the long run.
EDIT: Ah, apparently they ARE King Springs. Carry on.
