Need new lift and have $1000 to spend

Bart, i'm aiming for about what you have with just a hair wider tires, ome 912, 1inch poly spacers, rancho 9000xl's, what else do i need? and where's the best/cheapest place to go those parts. i hear about the rancho's for buy 3 get one free but right now they are all running the buy 4 and get the remote free..... i'm not feelin the remote. then the one inch spacer and ome 912's where are the best place to get those. and last do i need the break line extensions and the shock boots and other spacer parts that come in the kit?

Yeah, all I have is the OME 912s and some torsion bar cranking. Nothing else. Stock shocks, stock bump stops, no spacers. The lift with the springs is about 2"s and then with the 265 tires about a total of 3"s. IMO, a perfect balanced look for the VX. I have a slight rake (I think I only turned my torsion bars 8-9 times) which imo looks good and keeps the angle slightly better for my CVs.

Bart, one of these days I'm gonna photochop your VX body over mine so you can see what a proper lift/rim/tire combo should look like.

I don't think "proper" is the word you were looking for. I think "completely-out-of-proportion-and-awkward" is the correct word.
