Question 02 ES Questions/ OME lift

Hello all. I have an 02 ES. I run falken rocky mountains 265/75/16 NO lift. Fits well with not rub but would like more height and comfortable ride so someone suggested the ome 2" lift. Comes with 4 springs and shocks. So here's my question.


I don't have any spring in the front. Just shocks. Will I just have to crank the torsion bars up a lot to level it out to match the back then add the shocks? Or will the front shock just lift the front like the back. I do venture out to the woods so often to camp but nothing heavy duty after all its only 2wd which is fine by me.


Thanks,
Kris

If it were me I would just crank the torsion bars, 're index your bump stop gaps to .5 and then go get an alignment you will get around 1.5 inches to the front out of that. If you wanna go a little higher in the back you can add longer shackles or an extra leaf spring or both.

Hope this helps

Edit: sorry about that, adding new shocks to the front will probably not raise it any, it will definitely make a difference in ride especially if your current shocks are worn out.
