so i have a 98 suzuki sidekick 4 door with coil and strut spacer front and honda accord rear springs. so i worked all summer so i could do a samurai sas. but now that i have all the money and everything ive been thinking about doing something like the white rabbit build. like moving the wheel base out keeping it low and run 33s. but at the same time it would be nice to have the hieght for where i go wheelin. or to keep it cheap and simple just buy a 2in body lift and call it good there and wheel the crap out of it the way it is. so if any one can help me out give me some advice.
thanks
here is what i hve right now

Funny thing is that opinions are like a--holes, everyone has one. You need to decide where you want the truck to end up at and work towards that instead of trying to jump in over your head and tread water. I, like most on here have spent many years building up our vehicles bit by bit and enjoying them as we go. My current rig took a year and a half to build but I was still wheelin the pee out of my old one that went through too many changes to list.

I am kinda at the same point. Where to go with a build. I use mine as a daily driver so trying to keep it simple. But I love the ideal of a solid axle front. I have been saving up some dana 44 parts and looking for a ford 8.8 to make a hybrid front axle. but if doesn't work I haven't cut my driver apart. Look fwd to see what you come up with.

thanks for the oppions i think im going to go with a samurai front because i already have it and just use jeep links for the 4 link and chromolly axle shafts. then ill probably run spartan lockers front and rear. this will be the cheapest option of the most expensive options haha. but i think in the end i will be happier with that. ill just run 33x.10.5s or even just stick with the 31x10.5s they run really good on this thing

Same here, daily drive mine and wheeling on weekends 2" body lift and 30" tires. Put a spool in the rear. Looking at different suspension set ups probably staying ifs just not sure what yet.

if your staying ifs and you have money i would get the calminmi 3" or the altered ego 4.5 and 31s or bigger if you keep the body lift. if you like me and you have a budget i would just get the budget coil spacer kit from low range and keep the body lift with 31s. mine just has spacers with 31s and runs awesome. does great on the trails. it would be nice to have a body lift with the spacers for the extra clearence. i am open front and rear. personally i think that the spacers work just as good as the calmini. the calmini just has clearence. just my 2c
