    Hey guys, for the past few weeks I've been looking at various lifting options for my '04 Chevy Colorado Z71 2WD that are not only cost effective, but also are not going to tear up my suspension. Originally my plan was going to go include a Skyjacker Add-a-leaf, MAXX torsion keys, new torsion...

  7. Lifting
    So, I'm pretty new to owning a truck, and just recently decided that I wanted to lift it. Mostly, I'm in it for the aesthetics. That is, I like the look of a properly lifted and proportionally lifted truck. I'm not trying to spend thousands immediately, so a body lift appeals to me. On the flip...
