There was a guy on here who made spacers for his stock suspension that lifted the car an inch or 2.

Edit: found it: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...hlight=spacers

The problem with spacers is that the stock suspension will probably not offer enough travel, I will be doing this eventually of course there's other things to calc, possible brake lines extended and other suspension bits

i put the largest profile tire i could fit with out rubbing.

i have 215/55/17 on the stock rims.

gives me some height so i dont plow snow with my front bumper.
it also rides over the bumps and crappy roads like a dream.

but i am craving about one more inch of lift. i might do that spacer that campy posted the link to
