its not bad to do them a little. I have swapped to class 1 bar which is stronger and only have 1-2 cranks. suspension lift is good money for 98+ also there is only one brand left the rest are gone. just superlift.
most people in this gen do body lift because of the cost. i know I am and wheel at the dunes often with no issues it normally serves DD so it doesnt need a $1500+ lift kit.

Also, for 4x4 reliability, late 2000 would be best because that is when they went to live axles and the previous model 4x4 hubs were problematic.

98-99 problem is solved with AVM hubs or converting to later live axle if wanted
