Help with finding lift parts

I'm Canadian and use LORDCO as a resource.

I drive a 1990 4runner 2door and I'd like to get 2inches or so of lift out of it. I want BALLJOINT SPACERS and REAR COIL SPACERS but where can I locate these?? What brand and what part numbers... but something that lordco carries or napa.

edit: Also, if I chose to do so, can I run coils from a different vehicle in the rear to bring it up??

have you tried searching NAPA or LORDCO?
honestly, if you can't find part numbers for those companies...
theres a good chance we can't tell you the part numbers for those companies.

I've been to Lordco and the guy just looked at me... he's never heard of such a thing called a "ball joint spacer", and told me they dont make coil spacers for that year runner but instead I can pay the $1200 for a full kit.

Ball joint spacers

The rear is best lifted with new coils. Probably won't cost much more than coil spacers. I used Old Man Emu coils, but there are cheaper coils as well.

Lift cost:
$150 BJ spacers
$75 Alignment
$200 new rear coils

Total $425

Why not just buy a locker, it will do a lot more for the price, and you'll have fewer parts breakages.

I ordered my Balljoint spacers from Frank at www.sdori.com He makes them
He shipped them out no problem. Don't bother with lordco, most of the guys in there are pretty retarded...
