help with suspension on my new 87'

[boldtu]

So I am picking up the new rig on Monday
I am putting new 32" Bridgstone Desert Duelers
so I will need to lift it I think
I was thinking of the old man emu 2" lift without the shocks because the previous owner just put new stock ones on, do you guys think this is OK to do?
it has 170,000 miles on it (Pavement Queen). Are there any bushings you would recommend replacing while I am in there?


Thanks,
Chet

A suspension lift usually needs longer shocks to go with it, your shocks may not extend long enough and limit the suspension travel.

Oh yeah, the sway bar bushings could probably use replacing by now.

got it, in that case I think I will hold off on the suspension mods and just add a leaf to level it.

Thanks,
