Has anyone ran into any information on ways to lift a 2003-2005 Matrix. I travel down dirt roads and have to lift it 1-2 inches. possibly with some taller stiffer springs? spacer? or something else?

You'll likely have to go a custom route. How do jeeps and other 4x4's do it? You can simply gain at least 1/2" safely with a taller diameter tire.

This is not enough I need 1-2 inches, any other ideas?

I don't think anything exists after market. I'm sure some shop can fab you up some new springs to raise it a bit. People usually drop their cars, not lift them, maybe except for trucks.

I have a 2004 Jetta TDI and a kit exists, what about off road racing? I need extra clearance for potholes, speedbumps, etc as the raods in Central America are not as good. Maybe another toyota spring will fit in the car to raise it?
