Answer 1

You need some coil springs. Here, check this site out.

Answer 2

Yes. If it has coil-overs (or a factory adjustable suspension), you can just change the ride height like getting an alignment. If it has been lowered with lowering springs (or their cheaper cousins, cut coils and torched coils), you will need to replace the springs.

Get it aligned once you raise it - if the guy who had it lowered did things remotely right, it will have been set at an alignment that works for the low ride height and not the stock height.

Answer 3

if it could be lowered yes it can be raised again unless you had something from it cut out to lower it then just lowering it then yeah it'd cost you the price you cut off to raise it again

Answer 4

Yes, but I think you have to install new springs and the arms that hold the springs, then it will ride at normal hieght again.

Answer 5

Yes. Put the standard fitment suspension back!

Answer 6

in fact you are going to go with to purchase 4 titanium rods. connect the 4 rods real at the back of each and all the tires, take the tires off and scotch tape them to the titanium rods. that's how I did it to mine.

Answer 7

Yes, if you treat it nicely and boost it's self esteem.

Answer 8

yes, put the factory springs, shocks and struts back on it

Answer 9

yeah it sucks because you scrap when you go up hills and curves and driveways- i recommend seeing your local mechanic.
