Lift Kits and Tires

I would like to put a lift kit on my Big Red. I have found several different lift kits and it seems like all of them use different parts and pieces. What is the best lift kit to purchase? Also, If I put a 3 inch lift on my Big Red will it be to much of an angle on the CV joints and cause me trouble/repairs down the road, or should I just get a 2 inch lift kit? What is the tallest tire I can use on a 2 inch lift kit without scrubbing? What is the tallest tire I can use on a 3 inch lift kit without scrubbing? Would it be good to add 1.5 inch wheel spacers to my wheels after I add a lift kit and taller tires to prevent rollover, or would that possibly effect the wheel bearings and wear them out sooner? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Clint

Re: Lift Kits and Tires

you can't lift it over two inches because the ball joints want go down that far.
