try asking for a leveling kit or try ebay i've seen coils on there a few days ago going for 100. or buy it now for 120. also my brother just bought a trailmster leveling kit for 200. which consisted of coils and camber bushings which you'll need to align neg. camber when you lift the front unless your camber bushings give you enough camber to align it which my brothers did but that was on a ranger.

hope this helps

You can't lift the front end more than 1-2" without droping the pivots. Your camber will be too far off to adjust. You could make brackets yourself but I would just get a kit. You might try ebay also. There are parts to kits and random things on there every once in a while.
