Re: 2 Wheel Drive Lift Kits...

20 years ago I purchased lift springs for a 85 2 wheel drive 1/2 ton Chevy. I installed them it lifted 2 to 3 Inches. They where kind of intended for pre-runner style trucks and lifted truck like they said...what they forgot to mention was the ride was gone!

I then removed the springs from the 1/2 ton 85 and noticed they looked suprisingly similar to my 72 3/4 Chev so in installed them. The only difference that I recall is it was a little tougher to install on the 72...and I had to use a spring compressor (did not need one on 85). Again...totally lost ride but got good height.

Don't forget to visit your local alignment shop afterwards.

Hope this gives you some ideas...

Alan
