Factory 2" body raise?
 
I have a 01 2500 suburban 4x4.

The last few times ive been in to order parts (at different stealer ships) the guys ask me if i have the factory 2" body raise...

What the heck is that and how do i know if i have it. Im all about being 2" bigger LOL....

what it sounds like is like a factory body lift. you can tell by looking at the body mounts and seeing if you have a 2 inch block. well the best way to tell you what it looks like, it looks like a double stacked hocky puck on top of the rubber bushing.

I havent looked but i will. I know the hitch is flat against the bumper so im assuming it doesnt have a rase.

Then again a friend of mine has a 2500 HD truck and it sets higher stock than a 2500 NON HD. So maybe there is something different about them.

the frame them selves are 2" taller from LD to HD, most likely you do have a taller frame, you can tell by how much frame hangs below.

in the supra???????? that would be a 2jzgte there man. unless he did a v8 swap which i doubt and wouldnt cause them are very stout 6 cylinders!!!

yea its 2JZ, or a 3.oL in line 6 stock. mine is 60 over so i guess that like a 3.1 or something.

the motors are pretty much bullit proof if you use your head. there are a lot of guy making 1000 wheel hp on stock parts. granted a cluch up grade and fuel system is required ( they die about 550 whp)

quite a car to be as old as they are. Last year in the usa was 98.


Actully had a shop interested in buy the shell to do a Twin turbo v8 swap. we could get together on a price, but if im not mistaken they where going to V8 it with the I force out of a tundra and then run twin 60 mm turbos..
