Re: 2.2 lifted question..

i would NOT reccomend lifting a 2.2 with larger tires. not without lowering the gear ratio in the rear end at least, but with most already having a 3.73 you dont have too much lower to go....

Re: 2.2 lifted question..

major gear swap time!!! if ya plan on offroadin it then id go 4.88 or somethin

in my opinion... just find a 4x4 and lift it. it may be more expensive but itll be more capable
