new shocks or a lift?

i probably will nvr lift my truck, 99 f150 ext cab. a body lift would be your best bet for 2-3inches but then its one thing after another...you will spend 1-2k before its all said and done and only get 1-2 inches in clearance. you can fit 33's w no lifting, maybe a slight t-bar adjustment or you could do a body lift, then get 35's and rims, then re-gear, all for 2more inches. i think im gonna stick w 33's and maybe get on some lighter 17x9 rims. but aftermarket aluminum rims have low load capacities. there is alot of give/take when it comes too lifting. g/l though

So like usual I needed more stuff done to my truck than originally thought. I got new brakes, including new calipers because the old ones were siezed and because of this they damaged the rotors a little, so i got those turned, got all my plugs and boots(if that is what they are called) replaced, got new shocks in the rear, and the grand total was around $1700 So yeah... No lift for me for a while unless it is free! haha... well thanks for all the advice and help to all that responded.
And on another note I did notice a slight difference with the new spark plugs, just a hair more acceleration than before, so hopefully that improves mileage(dang winter blend!)
Again thanks.
