If you can find um or make um you could make extended a-arms and longer shocks. Thats my only idea for making a savage higher. Y did u wanna make it higher in the first place those things already tower sky high.

I use 1/2'' pvc pipe cut to 3/4'' pieces c-notched and painted black I ride 3 1/2'' in the air ant hills are no problem so ants beware! Ohhh soak the pvc in hot water so it does not snap

that would be nice if you could make it higher off the ground with the stock wheels.cause 3 inches is not enough,plus the savage looks like a girls car when under 2 inches off the ground(unless your racing) imo.one thing i have thought about doing is trimming the aarm or the bulkhead to gain more clearence.but i got rid of my savage before i tried it lol.but i think i might get the new savage x ss kit.
