will this lift work on my 98 explorer?

[EricG98]

hey guys.....i just purchased a set of goodyear wrangler authorities size 31x10.50x15s...they look great but i dont like the way they look under the truck....it needs to be just a lil higher not alot maybe 2 inches...well i dont wanna dich out like $500 for a lift kit..whats the best way to gain that 2 inches im looking for? i found this kit and was just woundering if this is what i need? i buddy of mine told me to just but the 2 inch add a leaf for the rear and tighten up the torsion bars in the front...can do this? im not worried about it riding like a log truck lol i drive this 2 miles to work everyday and when it snows and i use my mustang to drive everywhere else...any ideas would be awesome! here is the link to that kit i was telling you about!

the add a leafs are about $40 on summitracing.com, and the torsion twist is free and you get the same thing,,

save your money,
her's mine with the tt and a sort of add a leaf, and 31's, with lots of clearance
