Default Rear Lift

I have a 99 txt I did a spring over on the front looking to raise the rear about 1.5" or 2". I was thinking springs I also put a bed on the back and wanted to haul some stuff also.Just looking for some input.

If you flip the springs and use another shock mount plate in place of the spacer here in the picture, that will give you about 4", don't know what else you could do for 2", maybe raise the front a little more?

You could get a "lift-block" like they use in lift/lowering kits for trucks.Check you local speed-shop or suspension-dealer.They will only need to know the height of the block you want and the width of the spring.Hope this helps

To lift using blocks you have to flip the springs which is 4" without blocks.



After thinking here... you could leave the springs alone and use longer shackles to get 1.5 to 2" of lift.

do you have an "Agri Supply" near you. I can give you the number for rear leafs that'll raise the rear another 2". I took off HD rears on my TXT to put these on.

Correct. And it is not expensive...as you can do it yourself.
