I have a 2 inch body lift in a 92 2 dr vit. I want to get an extra inch of lift. What things will i need to do apart from longer fuel filler brake hoses and gear levers?

The plan is to take out the 50mm lift spacers and replace with 75mm spacers

don't you will end up with more troubles than any perceived benefits you think you may get.

3" body lifts bring the suck.

YOu need to get camber pins...

Camber won't cause noise, but it will need fixing with a 3" suspension lift.

If the front hubs are unlocked, the source of the noise is likely to be the rear driveshaft angle. It's likely to also be felt as a vibration. Fixing it might involve a longer tailshaft, lowering the back of the transmission, a CV joint in the tailshaft along with a rolled pinion angle, or maybe just rolling the pinion.

out door auto does a drop cross member for the transfer case that might help.
u will need a off set 60mm spacer for the rear ball joint and a tail shaft spacer.
as for camber try camber bolts and this http://www.zukiworld.com/month_120102/f ... endmod.htm
