xmeatbagx Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 What is the cheapest way to level my truck? The front sits alot lower than the rear. Can I throw different coil springs in from another jeep? idk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 what are the specs of the suspension now? stock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Why does everyone hate the rake? I love it. It looks a little mean, and it makes it so it doesn't look like it's dragging it's @$$ when it's loaded down. More on topic though... if you have a 4 cylinder, you can throw a set of 4.0 springs in to pop the front up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-600JeepMJ Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Yes if your suspension is stock. Grand Cherokee (ZJ) coils springs rated for the V8 will give you about a two inch lift. so will the front coils out of a ford F 150. Or you can also do some home brew spacers just a few links to help you out. http://www.lunghd.com/Tech_Articles/Sus ... t_Lift.htm http://www.delta4x4club.com/TECH/JEEP/BOOST.php http://fitchva.com/jeep/?p=56 http://www.rocklizardfabrications.com/h ... _boost.htm http://gojeep.willyshotrod.com/HowtoFrontSpacer.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 if it's 2wd, then 4wd coils will bump it up an inch. And if it's 2wd, all of above suggestions will lift in another inch on top of the numbers provided. A sneaky way to gain a bit is to throw in extra coil spring isolators (the rubber donut above the coil spring.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpnjim Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I put some sagged out Rusty's 3" coils in, and it leveled it almost perfectly (89' 2wd 4.0L/auto). (springs were good for 3" when new, but only 1.5ish now that they're beat) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More on topic though... if you have a 4 cylinder, you can throw a set of 4.0 springs in to pop the front up a bit. I noticed that too. I also love the rake but mine is has more than most. Dunno why. I noticed that when I bought it. It got a little worse when I replaced the rear springs. I added OME 930 coils for 1 1/2" lift but it still has a pretty good rake. About perfect now.
