    Hey everyone - I need to raise the front 1" to be level with the rear (previous owner raised it) does anyone know where/how to obtain the parts to raise it 1"?

    I see lots of 2" kits (don't want that) I Have some nice customer fenders so that would not work.

    Thanks

    You can install Afco 23250 250lb springs to raise the front about an inch or any other 250lb spring for it.

    On a side note - where'd you get the Carry Hot Wheels from, what's the model / name and any close up pics? I want one!

    Hey, it's actually a guy on the web that takes a picture of your vehicle and makes it into a hotwheel package. just an image, but I love it!

    I think he charges like $5 or something.

    I agree tuanies.... replace the strut springs with 250 lb springs. It raised my 92 hijet up exactly 1 inch in front.

    At one inch of lift, you haven’t gone far enough to effect the suspension geometry too adversely. The factory chamber adjustment slots should allow sufficient range to true things back up. So, the manufacturers aren’t typically making adapters.

    Plus most folks who are installing lifts want the two inch. Which is about as much as you can lift the suspension, before the CV joints will start to bind on droop. And the rear before you have drive shaft length issues.

    Personally, I’d go with the two inch. It decreases the potential that the tires may rub, while keeping the driveshafts happy.
