Looking for some information on lift kits

Hey yall I'm back for more.
I got my issues settled for the most part, and have moved on to doing things I want to instead of have to. Which leaves me with a question or two.

I bought a cheap set of 32x11.5s in good shape, put them on my Pacer wheels, pounded on the corners of the cap and front bumper, and am pretty much good to go. UNLESS I have the wheel cut all the way and hit a decent bump. I can't even really tell where its rubbing at. I was looking into lifting it anyway so now is better than later. I don't need or really want anything more than a few inches. I've been looking around for a 2" suspension lift or somewhere around there, but no luck. Do they make anything smaller than the 4 inch? I have found the 2 and 3" body lifts, how rough of an install are they for someone with little knowledge? If they do make a smaller suspension lift where can I find one?

Also, I'll be putting a new exhaust on Tuesday, and after some searching I've seen a lot of people saying 2 1/4" pipe is a pretty good size? I plan on that and a decent muffler, since mine exploded going down the interstate the other day. Open to any suggestions as far as that goes.

Sorry for all the questions and thanks for advance for any help,
Jake

Your best bet is ball-joint spacers and Old Man Emu rear springs... Do a search on the forums for both of these things and you'll get the info you need. With a little torsion bar adjustment you can get 2" of lift!
