Default Lifting an '89 Gypsy

I was wondering if there are any suspension lift kits for an '89 GMC Gypsy (high end, limited production s-15 jimmy) 4x4? I dont wanna dump a boat load of money nor do I need a 6" lift. 2~4" would be fine. Oh, and body lifts are out of the question.
Thanks,
AuSSenseiter

well there is no 4" suspension lift. and if you don't want a body lift you are limited to 2, 5, and 6. you can crank your torsion bars and put shackles or add a leaf to get 2-3 inches. doesn't cost so much other than front end parts wearing out. most people do the 2" tbar crank and a 2" body lift to get 4 inches. what is your reasoning behind not getting a body lift? body lift "myths" about the truck coming off the frame is not true as long as you get a legitimate body lift and not a "hockey puck lift" and with the 1st gens you can even get a 3" body lift for around $200. I had to look up the gypsy never heard of them.
