Okay...feed me.

I have decided that I officially want a 1"-1.5" lift from just coil springs. I want some that will handle well, take to offroading well, and not sag. Spit it out to me. Which set? PP's, OME's, OEM , what? I have about 300 to spend.

What vehicle do you have? Are you looking for a front and rear lift or just rear?

Here's what you'll want to look at:

Sonoran Steel Factory Parts Lift Kits

And if you get a lift, don't forget this:

Extended Panhard

for 300 dollars all you could probably get is some spacers and new shocks for the rear....I'm planning on doing the same thing (no more than 2.5 inches of lift...preferably 1.5) and I want to stay in a range below 500. I want to change out the shocks on the front and rear so what i've come up with is the spacers.....i dunno.....

For a small lift, Downey coilovers are cool. They allow you to dial between 0" and 3". Get the 2" rear ones, they settle to 1,75" or so.

You can get the full setup from wheelers or TRDparts4U (strap22) and it will run you just over $600 or so.

On your 98, you should get about 1-1.25" up front and 1.5-1.75" in the rear.
