mk4 jetta lift

http://vancouver.craigslist.ca/van/pts/5372333947.html

I'm new to VW ownership- ainy thoughts I should consider with a spring lift? vs. a puck lift?

Not sure how you would lift a Mk4 with pucks?

Springs are the proper way to do it.

Metalnerd sells kit for doing exactly this.

But if you can find a set of springs that will lift it as high as you want, that may be a better way to go.
If you live in the salt belt, corrosion can be a factor on the parts that sleeve the strut. Metalnerd does anodize his aluminum parts and it will help. It would not hurt to have grease fitting on them as they need to spin freely on the strut shaft for proper operation.

welcome to the club lex. search for lift in the mk4 section and you will see that this lift is good. can be done cheaper though. "beef on a budget" is one thread.

I did this on my wagon with ESP, worked great. Looks very similar to Metalnerd's kit, but $110 cheaper, and no waiver to sign, or "not for cars with ESP" to deal with

Gotta remember guys, with the exchange rate now, we get hosed,

I'm not sure of the OP's car style, wagon or sedan?

You can put VR6 Wagon springs on your sedan for a good amount of lift. I would put these springs in the front and VR6 sedan springs in the back. You can get the rear springs from Amazon or somewhere similar. Moog 81055 Suspension Coil Spring

I have TDI wagon springs.

I put the Evolution kit on my wife's '03, no clearance issues now. Hers was sagged worse than my '01 is.
