Well I finally got my combo lift installed.  I started with Sky's coil spacers and then added a homegrown (Big Pig) body lift.  The coil spacers are 1.75" and the body blocks are 2".  Here's a shot of it right after I finished the lift.  I am running 235/75R15 BFG M/T tires right now, but I would like to go to 31 or 32's later.  I modified and remounted the bumpers with trimming on the rear for a "high and tight" look.  I've still got to lengthen the shifters and get it aligned, but I love the way it looks!

Next will be fabbing up some bumpers and sliders with an exo-cage over the hard top to protect my kiddos.  By the way, this rig is a serious budget builder.  I have a grand total of about $1200 in it as it sits, including the cost of the truck.

Hey Great color '89! I'm partial to that myself Sea-foam green with brown interior. Can't beat it...

Thanks Eric.  I agree, the color is cool.   I think I've only seen one other like it besides yours and it was a two door hard-top (which would look good in my driveway ).  I've been looking at yours for inspiration since I got mine about 4 years ago.  Is yours now SAS?  That is the ultimate goal for mine.  But like I said, I'm on a strict budget with a family of 5, which is why it's taken me 4 years to do anything to it.

I like the solid axle setup quite a bit.  Since you're close in the area, we'll have to go wheelin' sometime. Oh, 2-door sea-foam green Sidekick, Heaven! The 2-door hardtop was probably LOADED too. I betcha it had every option including cruise and tilt. Seriously cool!
