Lifted trucks
I'm looking for ideas on lifting and making my 2004 silverado louder and more aggressive but I don't want to spend a horrible amount of money doing so if y'all could post pictures or any advise on what I should do

Not my best advise but here's what I think you want to here. Crank torsion keys all the way up.... Free. Get on eBay and buy some shock extension brackets....approx $30. Buy 1 1/2"-2" lift blocks with u bolts for the rears....approx $100. Cut off the muffler and run straight pipes out the back.....$100-$150 depends on muffler shop prices. Go get a front end alignment...$70-$100. There you have it, lifted and sounding more aggressive as cheap as possible.
Now just sit back and wait to start replacing prematurely worn out front end parts and possible tickets for noise violations. As Country said, it cost a great deal money to do it right.

I'm alright with spending a good amount of money ( 400 -500) I was just trying to keep it out of the 1000 area. I planned on spending 1000 ish on lift and tires. I want to put a 6 - 6.5 inch lift and I was looking at 35 inch tires so I planned on spending a good chunk of change

I would advise maybe a 3 inch body lift and a levelling kit (torsion keys), a guy did that to my tahoe before i had it and he was running 37s, i immediately went to a 315/70r17 which to be honest was the best idea, and lowered the keys a bit and trust me fits the tires fine and looks really nice.

Torsion keys cranked and a 1.5" (200) or 3"(300) body lift will suffice if you want cheap but lifted. 6" lifts at the cheapest are 1k and 35s are at least 1200 no matter what. 1k for the lift and tires ain't gonna cut it
