Default 2003 gx470 lift?

Can someone please tell me how to lift my gx470. I want a 1.5 inch lift/ leveling kit. for the front. Every thing on it is stock right now. I am runing 265/70/17. I want to keep the back stock, or fool the air bags. Also. Send me some pics if you guys are running 265/70/17's with a leveling kit. To see what it looks like. Or do i need to go to a bigger tires. Thanks. I am new to this forum stuff.

If that's all you're looking for then in I'd just use a spacer in the front and trick the bags.

I think that's when you put some spacer washers between the bracket that mounts to the height control adjusters and the frame. By adding a bracket, you get a little more lift adjustment. However, if I'm not mistaken, I think that stiffens up the ride a bit too.
