Any 98+ ranger body lift will do well for your truck, its a good 3" lift, cheap and makes the truck look great. The suspension lifts I am only familiar with superlift.com, they are expensive, but it's well worth it. Start small, do a body lift, add some 33's and some nice rims and its a huge difference!

I actually bought the truck with the superlift on it, then did the body lift. The superlift is great and all but when I went to buy new shocks, I had to wait on superlift to list them for sale. From what I learned they only list them about 2 times a year and when you get that lift, you can only buy superlift shocks for your truck as long as you have that lift

X2. There's just something about a body lift that looks kinda tacky to me, but then again there's a lot of rigs on here with just a body lift that look pretty sweet.

thanks man. i have 33's on the way because a body lift is out of the question. line-x sprayed my bed liner over my bed bolts and theres no way to get them out without voiding the warranty or compromising the integrity of my bed.

You can scrap the bedliner off the bolts with a hammer and flat head. Just get them to respray over the new bolts
