You probably can.

But the struts/shocks will not handle it.

And your camber caster on the front will be wayyyyyy out.

You wont fine much over 2" lift as its a shit design with the coilys. This topic has been discussed 1million* times before!




*Guesstimate.

you can get a 4 to 5" list with a coily.... most of it wont be with suspension though.

2" body lift, 2" sus + 1" coil spacers

or cut your guards + 2" suspension 3" body lift

definitely reinforce your radial arm mounts and strut towers, or things will break.

I think in the end he ran lifted Honda CRV springs and shocks to suit. He parked next to me one day and had a good inch more height than me. I run 2 inch body and spring lift with 30 inch tyres. This is exactly what I will be doing once I have the neccessary pieces together.

Unfortunately for us coily owners struts are a killer...simple fix, piss em off Castor correction can be fixed with bushes and custom arms to suit your new suspension setup.
