Lowered S10

Hello i have a 98 chevy S10 that i lowered 4 inches in the front and 4 in the back.  Now i have a couple of problems wrong because since i lowered it i have a clicking noise coming from under my truck.  So i asked some mechanics and they said its either the u-joints or the drive shaft is too long and it jammed up in there with no play, so i checked it out and they said i should see like an inch or so of teeth off your yoke on the tranny and on mine the drive shaft is all the way against the tranny so i was wondering if you guys can shorten my drive shaft or if theres a way i can do it myself or what?  Thank you

Lift?

I have a 93 GMC 2500 4×4 and would like to fit 44’s under. Am getting Bushwacker cutout fender flares. Not sure yet how much fender is required to trim for the fender flares. How much lift not including the cutouts will I need to fit the tires? Also will I need spacers for the front axle? Am getting a straight axle conversion plus a ford front axle for it.  Also does anyone know if it is possible to put rubbers spacers between leaf springs to make the ride better? Thank you for the help

2003 Toyota Tacoma Lift options

I have a 2003 Toyota Tacoma 4×4  Xtra cab and I want to know what lift options I should look at.  I’m thinking 3″ or less.
I drive mostly street, but put many hours on them in Tahoe snow and what not.  Really I want the lift more for looks than the need of the functionality of it.  I drive hard, fast, even slightly reckless.  I want something that won’t lose handling.  I suppose I’ll need new shocks as well with this deal.  Any suggestions would help

military Humvee wheels on Dodge 2500

I am wanting to put a set of steel beadlock runflat military humvee wheels on my 1999 dodge 2500 cummins diesel 4×4.  These wheels have a huge backspace of 7″.  In order to locate the wheels back out similar to stock I think I will need a 2″ spacer.  Is this correct?  My next question is one of safety.  Will your 2″ spacers at all four corners of my truck be safe?  I pull trailers up to 10,000 pounds, sometimes load the bed to max payload, and not to mention the weight of the diesel on the front two wheels.  I want my truck to look good, but I do not want to sacrifice any safety.  Can your spacers stand up to this usage?  Do you offer any kind of guarantee or warranty?  Thanks in advance for your help.

I have a ‘06 Chevy 3500 DRW and want to increase size of my tires.  What spacers kit do I need?  Also if I put in a space, will I have to replace my wheel studs or anything like that?  I am looking to go from a 215/85-16 to a 265/85-16 or something a little bigger.
