Bigger tyres gets diff higher off ground. Better approach, departure and ramp over angle..
Body lift gets you higher off ground and less body damage and allows bigger tyres too fit.
Spring lift gets better approach, departure and ramp over angle and allows bigger tyres to fit but does not get diff higher off ground.

Cheapest depends on what you can do yourself and depends what you are trying to achieve??

Even cheaper, pump the tires up to about 60psi, that should get you an inch. :D

Body Lift ?
Spring Lift ?
Sprung Over Lift ?


But i reckon a ,
Spring lift with shockers - $1000-1200
Body Lift - $150.00
Sprung Over - Dont know from shop , but to do it your self under a $1000.00 , including shocks , brake lines , u-bolts and consumables.


Also the cheapest depends on if your hands on , or your paying brass for someone else to get there hands dirty. Give us a bit more info in what your after .

Cheers.

remember to go springover you need to also invest in high steer or a double arm, and an anti wrap bar in the back, which will push the price up whether you DIY or pay to have it done. $1500 is a realistic DIY budget for a springover done right, and you need to consider the cost of engineering it once it's done, which will probably be another $500.

lol

the steel belts would have to break first, and if they let go id say it will be about 7.5" closer to the ground not an inch higher >_<

cheapest lift is resetting your springs.
