If it ain't broke, fix it 'till it is!
What's a good cheap way to get some extra lift on my 85? I just would like a little extra room for my 31's to breathe before I get my superlift. Thanks.
 
If you're going to get a suspension lift eventually, I would go with a body lift or you can trim the fenders.

There is always the coil spacer method as well..
 
you could get some skyjacker leveling coils, i think there the 132s. They sell them on summit for about 150
 
Read the tech pages.:icon_cheers:
 
2 inch body lift. If you go 132x coils, you will find yourself opening a whole new can of worms - alignment/camber issues that will most likely force you to get axle pivot drop down brackets (and get them installed) - ask me how I know (read signature).

You can get it to adjust with camber bushings (see recent 132x post) but that all depends on your local alignment shops skill level (still looking for a good one around here).

fender trimming helps chase out rust too haha or at least thats my excuse
