coil springs
i actualy have a 3'' coil lift on my 2000 chevy blazer 2wd it does lift the front end pritty good. but anything after 2" the upper a arms have to be replaced with different ones because the ball joints could fail because of the extreme angles involved. but all said and done i love the hight of the 3" lift and the firmness of the ride but it causes other problems. because the coils are so strong the upper a arm is rests on the frame so on the rebound from bumps u can hear a very uncomforting metal on metal clank. so i have no problem with coil lift just get 2" or a max of 2.5" lift coils and this will solve the problem. And to whoever plans on doing a coil lift just get it done by a mechanic i did it myself and its really a pain not to mention messing with compressed coil springs has many dangers involved.
