I have a 95 S10 2wd ext cab and I want to put 31' tires on it! I know they won't fit without a lift! How big of a body will I need to get to fit a 31' tire on my truck???

Hey I put 31"x10.5" tires on mine and all I got was a 3" body lift kit. If your tires extend outside the fenders then 3" will not be enought but if your tires are flush with the fenders than 3" will do the trick.

A 2" suspension lift can be had from Rough Country fairly cheap and comes with shocks. They say it will fit 30" tires. So its like bringing the 2wd up even with the 4wd.
Performance accessories makes good body lifts. THey can be found at Summitracing.com starting at $79.99. Summit also sells a similiar lift with the Summit name for about $65. But these dont come with bumper brackets.
Since you want a body lift I would go with a 3 inch and 30" tires. But check the tires your getting. Not all are true to there call out. A mickey thomson Baja radial 30x9.5x15 is actually only 29" tall. But most that say 30" are within 1/4". A 235/75R15 is just about 30" too.
Dont overstuff the wheel wells.
And remember bigger tires means a change in performance. TO get back to stock performance or better you will need to change out the gears. Your looking at atleast a 3.73 or numerically higher.
