Default Raising car a Bit?

How is it possible to raise my 02 z-28 about an inch. i have 2" lowering springs and just had and x-pipe with dumps put in for my exhaust. it is a bit too low scraping the ground with a couple people in the car. How can i raise the vehicle just a bit without going back to stock height? Still have stock shocks.

Come on... Unless you learn how to levitate a car, you need to change springs. You changed springs to drop it 2", why do you think something else will work to move it back up?

Get some air shock's for the back and pump em all the way up Ok i'm kidding. I went the true dual route for about a month and said F-that. I wasnt even lowered and the scraping drove me nuts (illinois roads blow)..Good luck to ya
