I’m really struggling with options to raise the front 1.5-2”. Why can’t I use longer springs or spacers? Is there not a way around this?

They do make some prerunner kits for the Twin I Beam vehicles. They aren't cheap though.

Yeah, I’ve seen those. A bit outside the budget as are body lifts but I’m still struggling as to the ’why’. I can’t figure out how a longer spring is going to impact the traction control.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.

It's a 2010. That's SLA, probably torsion bar. Not easy to lift properly. If it was mine, I'd be doing a SAS.

Oh, wait. Just read it again and see that it's coil spring and 2wd.

Longer coils are going to screw up the alignment. Nest way to change ride height of the front is with different knuckles that raise or lower the spindles.
