91 yota 2wd Automatic Lift????

Hello everyone im posting this for a freind. He just picked up a 1991 toyota pickup 2WD 4 cylinder, Automatic. Hes looking to lift it very slightly. At a cheap price. Ive been searching and searching the forums and links and cant seem to come up with a kit or even ideas on how to do this. Can he just do rear shackle spacers, And ball joint spacers up front ??? throw me some ideas guys caues i have no idea with these 2WD's.

Yeah, Abe's better half, Sin91 drives a lifted 2wd auto, but it's a column auto, not floor. It's either a 3" or 3.5" lift......

3.5" fabtech lift (now discontinued):


cheapest option would be a body lift, but if it's a column shift auto it's a p.i.t.a. since the shift linkage goes through the front firewall with the steering column. if it's a floor shift, I believe 4crawler.com can set you up.
http://4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/Toyo...BodyLift.shtml

least expensive suspension lift would be to do bj spacers up front (4crawler: http://4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/BallJointSpacer.shtml; or sdori: http://www.sdori.com/SDORI_Products.html) and add-a-leafs in the back- should net you ~1.5" front and about ~2-3 in the rear (depending on the condition of the existing leafs).
extended shackles can add up to ~1-1.5 in the rear.
If you need more than the ~4" lift in the rear, either locate new springs or top mount the springs on the axle.

any other questions?
