Well, I think I got my plan set in stone now! I think I'll do about a 4" suspension kit WITH a 3" body lift.

a c-10 is 2wd like maxman04 said. not much point in lifting it, if u want to bog with it still and have some fun, throw on some 31X10.5's on the back and some 28" tires on the front (bigger will rub) and have fun, i have been in 2wd's like that before and it is sickly fun, the smallest puddle turns into a rooster tail lol, and with really knobby rears you can still take on a medium size mudhole. if you want to go bigger then u need 4x4, and in which case i would go with the 4" suspension (front springs and rear blocks) and 3" body lift then 35" tires will fit (with fender corner mods on the front) this is THE cheapest and easiest way to fit 35's under these trucks (unless u go with narrow tires but what good is that in mud?) 6" blocks in the rear spit out and therfore u must go with rear springs when lifting 6" and when lifting your truck and after, when u go bogging in it always dissconnect the anti roll bar and rear shocks, make that baby twist for you, i have worked on many trucks with the same set-up (tunning the engine for the bog weekends and such)
