Front Lift/Level 2WD 72 c20

Whats the bexst way to raise the front end level with the rear? 2wd with springs in the front. I'm browsing the lift sites and only see stuff for 4wd or full suspension lifts. Do you buy a 2 or 3 inch kit and not use the back?

Generally you lower the back to match the front, not the other way around.

Do you need the truck lifted or just want it level?

Re: Front Lift/Level 2WD 72 c20

i want to put 33-35 inch tires. It looks like they will fit under the back, but the front needs to come up a hair.
Im thinking a new set of springs and some coil spacers mmight get it.
