For the front, I prefer springs over spring spacers. But generally, either are pretty much acceptable.

As for the rear, I would never do the 2" block because that means you are stacking blocks. The better way to go is a single block that is the correct height, or better yet, and AAL.

ok, so if i took that off and just put 5" block on it would be equivalent to a 2.5" and a 3" stacked?
