Default Coil/Torsion Combo lift questions

Hi,
I have a 98 4dr Blazer LT and looking for about 3-4 inches of lift. I see all over about the torsion bar crank method of lifting, and I see 1.5" lift coil springs avaliable here and there, but I cannot find any information on a combo. Seeing as how I have replaced my drivers side ball joint every year for the last 3 years, I dont really want to crank the chit outta the torsion bar.

Has any one... or is it even possible/recommended... to put 1.5" coils AND crank the torsion bar a little? Would there be any adverse effects to this route such as increased wear (like if I cranked the torsion to the max) ?

since yours is 4wd it does not have coils. So your only option is the tbars or a body lift
