2 inch lift

[huggy]

i am about to do a 2 inch lift on my truck,what do i need to undo to fit the rear blocks and can i lift the front by 2 inches without messing up the camber,if so how many shims are there and how many do i remove to bring the camber back into line? and how many turns do i need to do to get a 2 inch lift? this is a job ive never done before so hope i dont screw it all up

To fit the coil spacers undo the lower shock mounts and unhook them from the post, jack up the car and the coils will be loose then just fit the spacers in.

At the front just take it up and inch and a half you wont have any camber issues then and you will retain some down travel.

To wind the front torsion bars turn the 27mm bolt under the cat about half way down on both sides, be sure both sides are the same level, I measure from the top of the centre hub on the wheel to the edge of the wheel arch, but make sre the ground is level and the tyre pressures are equal.

If you dont have a hi lift or really big jack to get the hieght at the rear, jack off the diff and axle stand the car. Remove jack and let the axle drop from the car, may need a couple of goes to get the stands the right height. Make sure you have enough height to get the spacers in as well. Keep an eye on the flexi brake pipe, dont let it get stretched.

ok job done looking good noticed that the rear shocks have been weeping but still seem to work ok,will be replacing those asap,should i just fit standard or ones that are 2 inches longer?,if so where is the best place to buy longer shocks?

For the rear you will need stiffer shockers there are a few options around the £38 mark each.
