Default 3" to 4" Lift???

2 Door with a 3" Bds, I want to go a lil higher, maybe a inch. Thought about 1 inch body, and switch out my coils and shocks for 4", is this possible, with out having to re do whole suspension kit.

Ditto... But I wouldn't add any more than a 1" spacer otherwise ur opening a can of worms.... I'm running a 3/4" Daystar coil spacer on top of my 4" Skyjacker lift

Good to know. I have a feeling my 3" might be feeling small soon.

A bigger lift means more mods,especially for a 2 door.Drive shafts for one if you don't have them already,track bars,control arms,etc.I would go with a spacers or body lift
