Default ZR2 Front Lift. Any Ideas?

Anyonw know of a 2 inch front suspension lift for a 98 ZR2, im installing 2 inch add-a-leafs (as opposed to shackles) out back because I tow a car trailer on occasion but I would like a front 2 inch lift to match the front. I was also thinking about a T-bar crank. Any ideas or pics? Thanks

tbar crank is free. It will level it out, why waste the money on a 2" lift for the front? You won't find one for the front only anyway...suspension lifts come in full kits to do the entire truck.

wont the t-bar crank make it ride harder and wear front end parts quicker?

If you over crank them yes. If you stick under 1.5" you shouldn't have any issues. Soooo many people have their tbars cranks without issues I wouldn't worry about it. It's when you crank them to 2" and above that you'd start to see extra wear on your front end.

Also, a 2" front suspension lift is a glorified tbar crank. Nothing more and nothing less, other than a new set of keys which you don't need.
