Default 5 in coil spacers

Ok well i am new on this forum and have a question. I saw a 5 in coil space online. I cant seem to find it now though. I am not worried about the off road factor because my truck rarely sees the 4 wheel drive trails that is what i use my Jeep cherokee for.I just want it mainly for looks. Oh ya my dodge is a 97 1500 extended cab with the 5.9 and 4x4.

Are you sure it's not a body lift?

You need a LOT more parts than that for a 5" lift.

ok i know that i need more than just those. I am not an idiot. I saw them online at one point in time and was trying to find them again. I am going to be building my own control arms to replace the factory ones.

i have seen 5 inch coil spacers installed before. but it was on a 05 ford and it was just dumb. might be cheap but i would rather spend a little more and get new springs and all.
