A neighbor of mine has an all-stock 2000 Dakota QuadCab truck. He just told me he wants to lift it, and asked me who he should talk to. I asked how far he thought he wanted to go, and he replied saying 6" (!). I'm not sure why he thinks he needs that much more height, but for the moment I'm letting it slide.

Who should I have him contact? Any suggestions?

EDIT: read second post below.

Update of sorts:

He hasn't even responded to me, but I've already thrown this back at him. I wasn't initially thinking of the torsion bars up front, which means there is no way he's gonna lift it six inches without spending 10x more than he probably wants to.

I'm asking him why he thinks he needs to lift it that far. Maybe I can talk him into something modest, within the adjustment capabilities of the torsion bars. We'll see.

My dad has one with the 5.9 he’d sell cheap. Runs great, replaced it with a newer 4Runner so this got parked.
I may be interested. As soon as our Bronco Sport arrives for my wife, I no longer need my off roader to double as a daily driver and am thinking options (may start its own thread.)
