lift

[spencer98]

does anyone know a cheap and easy way to lift a 88 k5 in the front end to get by till i can afford springs and everything

Add-a-leaf, re-arching the stock springs, new spring packs, or air shocks. There really isn't any other way.

i mean i got a 3 inch body lift to put on to help clear the 35s that will be on it and i don't want to cut it just do something to get another inch or 2 until i can get some new springs. what about shackles or something?

 

[spencer98]

i am gonna shackle flip the rear to lift it but need something done to the front in the meantime till i can get a lift kit and shackle flip kit

i think fleetpride in wilson will rearch your springs for you. at least i think its fleetpride, its one of those tractor trailer shops.

Will the 35's not clear with the 3" body lift?

 

[spencer98]

i'm not sure i'm thinking they will but i just wanted another option just in case it doesn't as it will be my only vehicle

35s with 3inch body will do ok on road , but ANY flex at all or tight turn u will rub and eat up that molding on the inner fenders depending how aggressive ur tread is . I had 4inch susp at first and it rubbed some but mainly offroading on almost anything

use an add a leaf. it is the cheapest option.

Check the boards, I am sure you can find some front lift springs pretty cheap for A Blaz, don't waste your money on A addaleaf put it towards a set of springs. Just my opinion

You could check out offroad design and pick up a zero rate. its like an add a leaf and gives you an inch
