I'm sure a lot of people have this problem. I have a 2004 Dakota Club Cab 2WD and I want to lift it a little bit. Does anyone have any suggestions for a cheap(or free) and reliable lift for these things(no body lifts). And after the lift how big of a tire? And the lift can't void the warranty.

 

Good luck finding a lift. I got an 05 and have resigned myself to waiting.

The only part of the warranty that would be voided would be the part covering the OEM suspension. There should not be any problem with any other warranty work. They would have to prove that the aftermarket modification caused the failure.

Read up on the Magnuson-Moss Act for more info.

 

I've seen cheap lift/level kits that use urethane spacers on top of the coil springs. Check Ebay that's where I see them most often.

 

yeah i know what you are talking about (http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/P...009154/c-10614) <--is that it? easy to install?. what about the rear suspension? blocks? and how do body lifts effect the warranty?

 

i forgot one thing...about how much do body lifts cost to install?

 

its 2wd....y r u lifting it? and after being in the 4x4 off-road game for a coupple years prior to getting my R/T, 'cheap' and 'reliable' just never go together in the same sentence when talking about aything for an off-road truck. not to be harsh, but y the hell r u lifting a 2wd truck???? come on now....

 

Prob for the same reason you lift a 4wd truck....for looks, as you know lifting a truck does not alone do anything for ground clearance about all it does is allow for taller tires and raise the possibility of rollover, so if you want to waste time and money lifting it go for it

 

yeah i'm pretty much just going for looks. I wanna be one of those people who lifts their truck and doesn't use it to go offroading. yeah i'm a poser but o well...thats just me. so anyways back to the original topic...how about some of those coil spacers and blocks for the rear springs? would it last? how much would it screw up my ride quality? and someone please answer the questions above those two comments ^.
