ive got an 87, and just put on my new tires (31" gillete kodiaks) and it really transformed the truck from its old mismatched tire situation. and i want more height(already planning a body lift).

i know i can lift the back with blocks, but i cant seem to find any coil lifts or anything else like that. i have heard on this forum somwhere that the coils from a bigger diesel truck of the same body style will give lift, is this true, and if so, how much? and does anybody know of a ciol lift available for theese trucks?



also for the body lift, what is the cheapest kit you have found, and how about ease of instalation?

Fabtech does not make there kit anymore
and I have not been able to find any kits for my 2wd '80.
I'm going to try to use 88-98 2wd front springs,2" blocks, and a body lift.

Good luck.
