Is this possible?

Since I am 2wd, is it possible to replace my 2wd struts with 4wd struts along with a 2.5" leveling kit to achieve more height? then in the rear put either an aal or 4wd block? Would I be able to run 35's with this set up? Thanks for the help guys

i would say no. that is why too much lift, your UCA angle will be horrid and i would bet you couldn't even get it all back together.

Yeah, kinda what I was thinking, is there a difference in the 4wd UCA? or other parts that could be swapped out? Just thinking here

You're going the direct opposite direction I went.

I think the difference between 4x4 and 4x2 coilovers is an inch of height or so.

LOL, I was low but now higher, just more my style. I really want 35's but not sure how to get them to fit, would rather not do a body lift, but a 4 inch suspension might work one day way down the line, I just need tires soon and wanted to see if there was a way to do it without the lift. Any other options?
