As you can probably tell i got no clue what im doing so i figured i would come and ask for some help.
I read all the other topics but didn't fully understand the different concepts of lifting.
I have a 2000 Mazda B3000 with 2 wheel drive. i would like to lift the front up 2" because the back is pretty high compared to the front. so i guess i need a leveling kit ?
My friend used hockey pucks on his truck and he raised it like six inches... but he's a redneck and i want to do it properly. what would be the cheapest way to do it ? Are there any spacers out there that i can use or do i need to play with the suspension ?

Sorry for the question if it seemed a little vague or confusing. i just can't figure out what to do.

Thanks!
 
You can get coil spacers, which will lift it. However it limits travel. Your best bet is to get some taller coils. You can praobably get a 3 inch lift, which is the most common for taller coils.
 
you can get a leveling kit for about $100 or so. i think they only reason you would need to worry about it limiting the suspension travel is if you do any real wheeling. and in that case you would probably be better off lifting the entire truck. you may get lucky and find a leveling kit for sale here for a good price. thats how i got mine
 
Ok thanks guys. I don't do anything like wheeling with my truck. I use it to haul my sled around in winter time but other then that its just my daily driver and i just can't stand it how the nose points down. Thanks though. i will try to look for some taller coils or a leveling kit !
 
get 2" coils from canuck motorsports, (springtech). they sell them for $150, they're your best bet, anything over 2.5" ull ned new uca's
