the easy way to "lift the front" is to install the rear coil out of the A1 in the front ..its a couple coils longer and will "level"out the mutt,you will need to re shim the lower control arms to get the caster/camber adjusted...hope this helps

Putting stronger springs on an A1 is just setting yourself up for a rollover! If you really need to raise the front just shim the entire front suspension assembly down. Four bolts. What you are proposing will put a strain on the ball joints and axle joints.
