why are you gonna put in your time and hard work by doing a coil spacer, then have to do it all over again when get your right lift? dont deal with TGC....you can buy from them, just dont ask them questions....theyre complete morons....

damn your never gonna get new tires then lol

you shouldnt need a pitman arm drop with only 2", but it wouldnt hurt if you did get a longer one.....it'll help the ride...go for new shocks too...and IMO dont do spacers...if you want 2" or "level" get a new coil.... and for shocks you really cant beat bilstein 5100's for the price

I dont know if you are going to tell the difference between 2 and 2.5. When I stuck a tape on mine while it was still in the garage 2" spacers make the distance from ground to top of wheel well = front to back, so if you are trying to get it level you dont need the rear blocks but if you just want the height go for it.

I hear you there, when I hook up my trailer I looks horrible. I'm thinking there might be some airbags in my future.
