Hey guys, I'm new here. I am wanting to lift my 2wd 1986 and I'm not wanting anything crazy.. I just want 3 or 4 inches and some big tires with my original wheels. Any suggestions?

Rear could be done with blocks, springs, or even a shackle flip.

Front, you'd need a lift spindle and heavier duty coils. I don't know the specs on the stock ones, but I'll bet you could find some coils that could work just fine.

Have you thought about a body lift too? I know they're not preferred by most, but you can get an easy 2in without spending or doing a whole lot.
