Haha, Matt99 already has first dibbs on it man. If he decides he doesn't want it, then i'll contact you. He may be removing his 2.5" level if you're interested in that. How about we all swap parts! haha

So if I were to pick up some bilstein 5100's and leveled my 2wd to 1.5" could that be problematic?

The bilstien 5100 is a coilover for 4x4s not your 2wd front.

And Razor, that sounds good to me. I could send you mine, then you pay bgblu. Even though the 2.5s are quite a bit more lol

Damn. I thought they worked with all drives. Oh well, spacers it is. Is 1.5" even worth it?

Anything is better than nothing but the stock spacer is 1"

I can live with a crappies ride as long as I don't have to look at my stock setup. I'm going to follow your earlier directions. Thanks.

Meaning that a 2" spacer which is advertised as 2" lift is ACTUALLY only 1" taller than stock? There's a lotta false advertising here in the truck lift world...

no the 2in lift spacer is really about 2.5in tall. The 2.5in lift spacer is 3in tall. the stock is between .5 and 1in (i dont feel like going and measuring) so you can do the measurements

Yep, but in order to add a level, MOST spacers require you to remove the stock isolator which is why the 2" spacer is 2.5" in reality but only gives you 2" of lift.. I hope that makes sense, lol it's late and I just got home from school.
