I'll say it before Scuba does.

You can fit 33/10.50's with no lift.

Cranking the t-bars doesn't ruin the CV's it just makes the ride suck.

Search, more info is out there.


Oh and welcome to Yotatech.

Well, 1.5" ball joint spacers and 1/2" of torsion bar adjustment would get you 2" of lift.

Another option might be a long travel IFS kit ($$$) or else a 4" bracket lift, but that is more lift than you need.

An cranking your torsion bars and/or ball joint spacers puts no added stress on the ball joints. Perhaps you meant CV joints and yes, the higher you go the more angle there is on the CVs unless you add a diff drop kit:

I know this posting is over two years old, but i also have a 92 and want the same thing. Seems that BJ spacers are a cheap and fairly good way to jack up the front end a bit. And not crank the torsion bars. Ill be doing it soon if anyone has an input or a certain kinda/company to go threw. And if anyone reads this, by getting the bigger shocks could that help they front end lift???
