Did the macho's have a suspension lift to them, because I heard they had a 2" suspension lift.

no, unless they ordered the heavier suspension group on it, but that was also optional to all of the power wagons...

Thank you for replying, and do you think the macho should be left at stock height, or should be lifted just a few inches (suspension)? I think stock height looks good.

I think that 2 inches looks good...one step taller on tires too...

4 inch suspension lift w/ 33's or 35's looks absolutely spectacular ;)

a mild lift (2"-4") and 33's looks great, they should have come from the factory that way. i had 6" on my rc and loved it, however the wife didnt.
