Anyone know how much lift you can get away with by just cranking the bars up?
If I can get 1 1/2-2" I'll be happy...just wanna level it out on the cheap.
I know it'll ride rougher...I'm fine with that.
Just wondering what the max is before it won't align....
 
1.5-2" is doable. itll be on the outer edges of alignment. and may actually ride better after it raises off the bump stops.
 
Awesome...I need a little bit of clearance with the offset of my new wheels and have free alignments for the next year at firestone where I just had it done a few weeks ago...sounds like I'm set. I think 1 1/2" will be just about perfect.

depending on where the keys are set you may get 2" max, 1" will be no problem though with stock keys.
 
I expect that mike. I need the clearance though. Tires just barely rub the fender liners. I'm gonna try 1" tomorrow and see where that gets me...shouldn't change the ride too terribly much.
 
1" won't change the ride much at all Rich. The rough ride comes from the shocks being too short when lifted anyways. If you have some extra flat steel laying around make about a 3/4 - 1" spacer for the lower shock mount and you'll be good.
 
Wound up with almost 2" and aligned perfect. Rear tire to fender is 10", front is 9 3/4"
