Default Under $400??

Is it possible to find a 3inch lift with rear springs for under 400, or find a lift and rear springs separate for 400?

if you are lookin for an inexpensive lift then put pucks in the front and do bastard packs from you local JY in the rear. should not cost more than 100 bucks.

They work great.I beat them pretty bad and still don't sag.They are easy to do too.Search bastard packs.It depends on how many you use depends on how much lift.I used all but the helper leaf and got around 4.5in.

Junkyard, Local Craigslist and Ebay are the best places to look at with that $400 budget...
