1.5" lift

[tjh]

Does anyone know if doing only a 1.5" lift will require doing the diff drop?
I was thinking of buying these:

and cranking the torsions just enough until level. I'd rather not have to go into modding/welding the front end if at all possible.

I purchased said springs, They lifted my VX 2.25" . I doubled checked my order and the box that the springs came in they all have 1.5" written on them.

I cranked the torsion bars so that the VX has the same factory stance, rather than leveling it out. I have not had any cv issues yet. When first lifted
during deceleration from highway speeds The VX did have a vibration up front, but that went away after about 6,months .

My VX has been lifted for about 3 years . It's also my DD.

Out of curiousity...which spring (in the link) is the 1.5" VX spring?

OME 912, 913...something else?
