I want to lift (yes thats right..) lift my celica about 2-4 inches, just enought to put stock cherokee rims an tires on it... perferable i would want the suspension adjustable, back to stock, or close. is there anyway to do this? aside from air bags?
I had an idea using a coil over kit, but keeping the stock springs, but this was one of those 3 am ideas...so any ideas? |

to lift a celica is quite difficult, if you just buy a cheap set of coilovers and throw them in- it will mess up your suspension geometry. This means it will wear out the outside of your tires very quickly.
To properly lift a celica you would need to move the suspension anchor points down to a lower position, get longer shock obsorbers, sway bars designed to work with a higher suspension, and finnally tallers springs. If you haven't noticed, lift kits for trucks cost a ton. To lift a celica properly will cost even more then that. Additionally, can our celica reliably turn such big tires? |
