Hard = No
Time-consuming = Yes

I suggest you slow down, take some time & look around here a bit - all of this very basic information has been discussed a million times & is east to find.


2WD = Spindle Lift is the way to go.

Does your truck have torsion bars??? If it's just a 2WD, non-Edge, and not 4WD then you don't need to worry about torsion bars.

When you hear the words "block lift", it means that bigger/taller blocks are put in to replace the stock body mounts to raise the body above the frame. It doesn't affect the suspension or anything. It lifts the truck off the frame so you can fit bigger tires.

A block for the rear would be putting taller blocks under the u bolts on the axle thus lifting the rear of the truck. Hope that helps.
