front end lift

I have a 02 excursion 4x4 diesel and the front end is 2 inches lower than the rear. I was wondering if there is a safe and easy way to just raise the front up 2 inches without lifting the rear? l have seen a 1-2 inch shackle lift has anyone tried this? thanks JIMBOEX

I just had the guy at the spring place add a leaf on the front. It raised it just over 2" and FINALLY got me off the bump stop.

Is there any chance that your current springs are just tired?

Look at RCD (Race Car Dynamics) out of San Diego. They make a really nice leveling kit which will bump the front up 2" and make it level with the rear.
