How to lift my 2wd c10

[Jordanw18]

Hey guys, I'm new here. I am wanting to lift my 2wd 1986 and I'm not wanting anything crazy.. I just want 3 or 4 inches and some big tires with my original wheels. Any suggestions?

You can use OBS lift spindles if you can find them,

Rear could be done with blocks, springs, or even a shackle flip.

Front, you'd need a lift spindle and heavier duty coils. I don't know the specs on the stock ones, but I'll bet you could find some coils that could work just fine.

Have you thought about a body lift too? I know they're not preferred by most, but you can get an easy 2in without spending or doing a whole lot.
