I didnt mean slam it to where your tucking 20's. Just a little drop maybe 2 in the front 3 out back. Just enough to make people say damn look at that. That's what I would do if was my truck. But really it's all in what you want and you like. If I was going to lift a 2wd truck I'd go full pre-runner style. Flared fenders 33" tires long arm suspension your basic street driven trophy truck. But like I said build it to what suits your needs and lifestyle. Personally I had a lifted 4wd ranger and hated it. Rode rough body swayed big tires hurt the engine performance. Then I had a lowered ranger which was great when it had the 2.3. Was more fun with 5.0 but didnt handle the turns very good with the added front end weight. My current truck is 4wd stock height with cranked t-bars 32" tires. Works great for my lifestyle. Would I like to lift   yea that truck would be bad ass rolling on 38's but it wouldnt work for me and what I use the truck for. So to each there own.
Oh yeah man I didn't mean to offend, if I did. And yeah either way I went, it was going to be all out like the full prerunner front for a lift, and upgraded suspension for a drop. Now as far as lifestyle, I'm stuck between both because both would benefit. I think, after sitting down today and really weighing pros and cons, I think I've got it. Thank you all who added input, it helped in my decision.
