can you raise a 1998 eclipse?

im thinking about buying one, and i drive some back roads and i live in minnesota so sometimes are roads are pretty bumpy. so im sure you havent heard this before:screwy: but can it be done without alot of money, or modifacation.
thanks a lot.

98 eclipse what? what trim is the car?

1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS . this hasnt been talked about is it.:grinyes:

you have the highest you can get i think... i think that the RS is higher then the GS... so if you had a GS you could use the RS shocks/struts to pick it up about 1/2" IIRC.... just guessing on this!

I love DSMs but if I lived in an area where I would need to raise the height of my vehicle then I wouldn't be buying a DSM. You just might want to reconsider something a little taller. If it's cars you like then I would suggest the Subaru Legacy Outback SUS, my wife and I just bought a 99 and we love it. I'm 6'2" so the height is awesome because it feels like it's about a foot off the ground. We bought ours for $7200 w/ 79k miles, came w/ leather interior w/ heated seats, sun roof, heated mirrors, etc.. Deff. a good buy. Also the car has some power, she's packing a 2.5L H4 engine w/ an AT. Very Nice. Check online if your interested.

does enyone know what the hight of the rs is or the gsx is? ya i like cars:icon16: . i would buy a pickup but not with these gas prices and insurence:nono: . is the hight simular to a focus or a old 1996 grand am? becaus if its like that hieght i could get away will that my brother and sister have one.

No man the height is quite a bit higher (not sure of actual dimensions) but when I get out of the Subaru I feel like I'm getting out of a SUV that's how high it rides. It feels like I'm getting out of Ford Escape which also has a whole hell of a lot of leg room in the front seats just for the record. I would suggest the Subaru because where you live not only are the roads bumpy but don't you also get alot of snow? I would suggest anything w/ 4WD or AWD w/ a decent amount of clearance. Hope this helps.

I believe all the 2gs are the same ride height. Maybe the GSX is a little different but they are all pretty much the same.

sorry ned i meant from a eclipse to a focus or a grand am. dont really whant a suv if i would go that way and just buy a dodge ram pickup but i dont want to go that way thanks for putting it out there for me. does enyone know focus or grand am compared to thr eclipse?
thanks

Unless you are driving down a trail or in the woods with sticks and logs and shit, the ride height shouldn't matter just for bumpy roads.

what about dirt roads?

Where in Minnesota? Regardless the RS or GS will be hindered by its power before its clearance. If you are really that worried either dont go on those roads, or buy a truck... you can get a little S-10 or Ranger that will get plenty good gas milage AND be acceptable for what you want to use it for.

do you know where saint cloud is? about 40-50 miles west of there. or 80 miles west of saint paul mineapolis.im not that worried just wondering
