2,3 inch Lift
I'm Pretty sure there has already been mention of this but i cant seem to find one. I have a 1990 CTD D350 2wd and i'm wanting to add a 2 or 3 inch lift to the front. The thing is i cant seem to find any leveling kits. I'm sure it can be done, so I was wondering what are some methods y'all have used to achieve this?

I'm going with these:
Dodge Pickup DSL 1980-93 Front Tapered Springs Softride 2in Lift - Pai – Carrier Spring Service Ltd. I have them already... some guys say they ride rough. I have to get my other project rolling (Cummins Ramcharger 2wd) before I'll have the chance to install them. |
Add a leaf? might give you an inch if you can't find a leveling kit
|
Only now do I realize you said 2wd....
You can get severe-duty coil springs that are good for some lift. Moog 7226S is the part #. |
pretty sure you could change to the non diesel lower control arms and that would lift about 2" , youll have to swap around ball joint and bushing and shit but it will work

^I get what your saying but it doesn't make since ,why does it work as a lowering kit but not as a lift kit , you can put diesel/van lower control arms in a gasser and it lowers it so it should work both ways , YES the ball joints and bushings would need to be swapped .

All the gasser and low GVWR stuff swaps because the balljoints are the same. You *might* be able to mix & match the knuckle and spindle (they come apart) to use the big bearings with the small balljoint.... I didn't try that since I had a complete 3850 GVWR suspension to swap into my RC. |
