yeah you guys obviously dont understand geometry putting the body further up on the fran makes the vehicle top heavy witch means the center of gravityis changed if it were an s10 it would be different beacuse the body is so light, I am looking for an economical and intellagent way to lift the vehicle someone just tell me what springs from what year vehicle i can install or i just go buy a kit if you dont have that information done comment!!!!!! period end!
thank you to those who actually had real information and eff off for those who dont!

No need to get nasty, I believe aaron7 answered your original question and we had all moved on to another topic (that being center of gravity) that you raised by your third post on this thread.
That being said I wonder how I got an Engineering degree without understanding Geometry and Physics?
Here is some real information so I don't have to (eff off). Remember that a suspension lift raises everything on the vehicle but the axles. When you raise the mass of the vehicle, be it the mass of everything but the axles or just the the mass of the body, you raise the center of gravity. Since everything but the axles has more mass than just the body any amount of lift on the suspension has a greater effect on the center of gravity than the same amount of lift on the body alone. When the center of gravity goes beyond a certain point the vehicle becomes top heavy and can even become unstable.

i believe i said i dont want any information unless its what is stated above!
and where anywhere did I say that a suspension lift doesnt raise the ceenter of gravity? I disregaurded that statement beacuse i know and I dont want it any higher than my suspension Is not onlly designed to be but the way it preforms body lift is to cheat and fit a bigger tire it gives no ground clearance so unless you can tell me what i stated above (eff off)
