You could get a 2" leveling coil kit from skyjacker would be the best choice. Check the classifieds, i think there is a set going for sale. They are easy to install, need an alignment afterwards. Pretty $$$$ for 2 inches of lift, but if thats what you wanna do, go for it i can't stop ya! I think you should be able to fit 32s just fine under there, you might have some rubbing on the radius arms but its not a big deal, you can even fit those on your stock rims. Good luck!

I put the Skyjacker 2" leveling coils on the front of my 93 F-150 4X4. Truth in advertising, they worked. My rig now sits level. I ordered mine through 4Wheel Parts Distributors and in their catalogue they in fact had a listing for 2" leveling coils for a 4X2. Don't know for sure, but it's probably the same P/N as the 4X4 version. Like somebody already mentioned the required front-end alignment afterwards cost me more than twice what the new springs cost. I think I paid $120 for the springs and the FEA cost me $255. I'm in Hawaii though, and that kind of work seems to cost more over here. Good luck.

i am thinking about buying used skyjacker coils he says they have 50 miles on them, its 110 (shipping included) or i can order some new ones off 4wheelparts.com for 195 which route should i go, after being used does it hurt the springs at all like make them sag a little
