    Work more overtime at work :):benchpress:

    Once you pass about a 4 in lift, your changing a lot of things and the $$$ goes up dramatically.

    I use to have a jeep/heep aka money pit and once you crossed over past 35 inch tires, you needed bigger brakes/driveshafts/etc. The list is long....

    Getting bigger cost a lot of money and you have to upgrade everything past OEM. You can do it cheap but your going to tear up a lot of things and end up spending a lot more in the end , than doing it the right way the first time.
