I know Paul(QB) has had great success with his 5 inch TM lift. His truck is an 01 and mine an 02. Will that make any problems for my installer when they put my lift on? Any comments?

Good luck! Lucky you found someone willing to put it on. Most shops won't do it cause it doesn't specify for our truck. Only advise is to make sure it is a reputable shop. I've heard horror stories before. Do you off-road or just for show? If you do any serious off-roading, I'd recomend the tbar relocator. The tbar drops catch on everything, that's the only other recomendation.

I am thinking about the 5" TM lift, or the 6" superlift for the ZR2 since you probably have to mod the same things.. and did any of yall have cable problems with the body lift?? like the cords were too short or had to mod some thing cause i want a body lift now like a 2" maybe 3" but dont know cause thats what i need to know if i have to mod any thing for the cords running through out the truck.......

Jay -- the 2 inch requires very little modifying--we could do it all in a day or day and a half. Just let me know when you wanna attempt it.

Paul (quickbiker) has the TM kit on his crew.
I would be worth taking a look at the install pics and His WWW page.

Hope to run spacers front and rear like Paul. Will keep tires unless I can sell without losing much cash. The jump from 265/70/17 (32x11.5x17) to 33x12.5x17 is like 60 bucks a tire. When these wear out I will got to mud tire. I thought about 31x12.5x15 on 15x10 wheels. We will see.
