Doc, this is how it gets sometimes, these are (2 INCH LEVELING SPACERS),SUPPOSEDLY..........thes are NOT 2 inch spacers, more like 4 inch,total height was as you can see 3 inches ,and look into the spacer you can see the coil seat was about one inch.,these were real bad, and the company told me over and over they were 2 inch, it is the largest spacer company seller................
As for mine, I still have not seen any problems from them as of yet. I'll keep everyone updated.

Yes, and they usually have a molded in part number on the bottom, these didnt, probably some they just had laying around, any way I sold them to a person that knew exactly what he was buying, and he loves them.

Only the 2500-3500 require new shocks. They are recommended for 1500's but my installer said that mine worked out great. The Daystar rep also said that I would likely not need them. If you are concerned about the idea of having to buy new shocks, I would strongly consider not leveling your vehicle. Any spacer that raises the vehicle that much could require a new shock, depending on your spring rate. I went into this knowing that I might have to purchase new shocks, and they are super easy to install. Three bolts and they pop right out and right back in. Also, they are not quite $100 more. Here, they are sold for $125 with free shipping. That's $85 more than the 1.5" spacers, and still cheaper than most of the other kits I've found.

The company I bought all my stuff from has those cheaper..........????
and even though it shows for a 2500-3500, it fits ours, the other stores sell it like that also, it fits 1500 ,2500,3500, 94-08 and of course ours

I think I came across that site in my search, but I didn't purchase because of the description. It's probably ok, as you said, but I just worried that they could argue that their website didn't say it would fit my truck, if I happened to have a problem with it. Plus, I have an Amazon Prime subscription so I get everything overnighted for $3.99. I'm spoiled on that.
