Raising 97 rolla 2-3 inches?

[mindbeats]

I wanted to know if anyone knew what I have to do in order to raise my car 2-3 inches b/c i just put a bodykit on my car and bought a new house.  Well the problem comes in b/c everytime I pull out of my driveway my car bottoms out and my front bumper is getting a little messed up. I heard from a friend that I either need to get larger struts or air bags. I'm not really down with the air bags, but if I have to get them I will. I wanted to get the bigger struts, but I dont know how big to get them or where. So if anyone's willing to help me with my situation I'd really appreciate it. Hope to hear from somebody soon!

Thanks,
Manny

Have you considered putting skid supports under your bumper?  As raising your car will destroy the handling.  When I had my Porsche I had the same problem, so I bought a set a roller blade wheels and mad a bracket, stuck them under the front bumper just low enough so they could not be seen but protected the fascia.  Than when I would hit a steep grade or big speed bump the wheels would keep the fascia from hitting.  They make mass produced versions but not with a wheel, it's normally a steel plate.  Either way it would be cheaper and less detrimental than raising the car.

if you do a plate make sure you if it goes back far to leave access for your oil filter and drain plug otherwise just set it up to drop quick like the tacoma skid plates do.
