you could put in add a leafs i think they have them so you can put one leaf in on each side to raise it 2 inches.or you could just buy 2 inch lift springs for the front.good luck!

also since the frame is from an 86 make sure to buy for an 86 truck.

The important question is what kind of front suspension are you running? Solid axle on leaf springs? TTB? Solid axle on coils?
