Lift Coil???

Anyone know of a company that makes a 1" lift coil that will fit my truck? Is there such an animal?

I haven't seen a bigger coil, but in the summit racing mag skyjacker makes a strut that mounts the coil up higher.

I agree. Also, you truck has dual a-arms and coilsprings, not coilover shocks like the 04-10 trucks so a new shock will not lift your truck.

I guess I am confused then. So you mean the lift coil springs that fabtech sells will not add any lift to my truck?
I thought it would since they also sell spindle lifts with 3.5" spindles and 2" lift coils for 5.5" of lift.

No, I was just try to clear up the misinformation posted about Skyjacker coilover shocks, which are for the 04-08 trucks and have nothing to do with your 2002. You can lift the front of your 4x2 two inches with lift coils or you can use Daystar coilspring spacers. The Daystar spacers are less expensive and won't affect your ride. A lot of lift coils are stiffer than the OEM coils.

Thanks Wandell. I figured my set up. Finally.....lol I am ordering a set of 3" spindles, 1.5" daystar, and 3" blocks for the back. Hopefully it will look pretty good. Also, if anyone can give me some feedback on the Rancho shocks. Are they decent, are they adjustable? Thanks for the help guys.

The Rancho RS9000's have adjustable dampening.
