I think the cheapest way would to make spacers and put them either in between your frame and leaf springs or up front between your leafs and axle

I did my self one of this home-made lift for a marathon. They work really good and was made out of scrap metal lying around. That's for the front.

The rear I put a piece of square metal between springs and differential. Lengthen the bolts with some welding and old grade bolts. Also lengthen the the rear support of the springs 4 more inches. Working great. Total spent: 1 day of cutting, welding, grinding and installing and about 20 dollars.

Thank you for the warm welcome guys.

Fear, where do spacers like that go? I need to lift the cart up and check out the underside and figure stuff out.

Well I finally looked at the suspension and right away it was clear where the spacers needed to go. So I made some blocks for the front and the total lift is 4 inches. My new tires should fit just fine now.

I have not done the back yet, ill tackle that tomorrow.

Thanks guys.
