Who makes a small (2-3") lift for a 2wd 97 250 s/c l/b?

Im asking cause, I dont think my truck is high enough. Even though its 2wd ( ) It needs more authority, you know what I mean?


Im still debating wether or not to leave it stock.

 

Having been there, done that I can't say it would be better to keep it the way it is, rather than put a lift on. I had a 2wd drive psd and sold it just to get a 4wd psd which sits higher. I also put a lift on my toyota t100, it looked better but drove like a dump truck, after 60 miles an hour it shook and vibrated, if you do get a lift for it, never buy a body lift. The only one that cares how high you are sitting your truck is yourself. After I purchased my 4wd psd it was nice when I first got it, but like everything else, it's no big deal after a while. You just get used to it. Just my opinion Jeff

 

Lift kits for two wheel drives are harder too find but they do make them . Try a web search , you'll come up with a lot of hits for lift kits . Or go down to your local four wheel drive store/shop . You could just buy 2" blocks for the rear and spacers that go UNDER the coil springs for the front . You may also need longer shocks and brake lines , and have the truck realigned . I have been toying with this idea too , sold my '86 SC DRW 4X4 and bought a '96 CC DRW 2X4 and I don't like setting so low !

 

i was trying to think of a way to just bring up the front end on my '95 reg cab. its going to need new shocks or something up front cause the tires are starting to lean in at the tops. if i was to get better shocks/springs and/or airbags what would this do for me?

 

RedStroker6 I would check out the front end before you start throwing parts at it . It could be more than weak springs and definitly more than worn shocks . Check the ball joints/kingpins for wear too .

 

i need to have it checked out....the truck had a few problems when i bought it and am still trying to work things out. i'm going ot be taking it into my shop soon to have a syncro looked at the was replaced and started grinding. gonna have him check out my front end too while its there. they look like the stock struts so who knows...

 

try fabtech for your lift....i have a 97 crew cab psd that i just got...it has a 4inch lift on it with 35's....i like the way it looks

 

cj . is your's a two wheel drive and if so what did ya have to pay for the lift ?

 

yeah it is a 2wd...and i love it, but i didnt pay for the lift, it was on the truck whern i bought it....check out the fab tech website, last i looked they had a 4 inch and a 6 inch for around a 1000...
