Default 2000 Durango 2WD Lift Opinions

I've searching and reading up on some lift options for the 2WD durango and so far its come down to either using a 3" body lift or using coil spacers and shackles. Im trying to figure out which would hold up best seeing and i do alot of towing. Any ideas

I was going to do the T/S lift but thats only for 4x4's, and suspension lift is more than i really want to pay. which only leave me with the body lift or using coil spring spacers and shackles. i know both can be done for under $500 im just trying which is more stable when towing heavy loads

A body lift will leave the suspension alone. So if you like the way it tows now do the body lift. Can't say how it will react with a shackle lift, shouldn't be unstable. A equalizer hitch and the right tire pressures and shocks go along way with heavy loads.

I don't think shackles would help you toooo much. Under full load your springs will still sag quite a bit.
