Default 3 inch lift on 2002 2wd

i can’t get a straight answer on if i need different upper control arms and lower ball joints or a different spindle if i get a small 3 inch lift, also don’t know what lift to get, if anyone can confirm that i need different uppers and lowers with a link to a set that i can buy that would be great 👍🏽

I'm not to familiar with lifting a 2wd, however id imagine whatever spacer/kit you want to use would list what's required. I would expect you to need more then a spacer. 3" on a 4x4 would be recommended to have longer control arms, shocks along with trac bar and tie rod adjustments

No need for control arms with a spindle lift. Just buy the spindles, and longer brake lines. They just move the mounting location for the hub closer to the lower ball joint on the spindle.
