Default Another Lift ?

I bought my 2000XJ with a 2" lift...5 approximatly 1/2" spacers in the front and 2" blocks in the back. The back sagged so I put shackles on the back. I put 31x10.5"s on and the back fits great but I need another 1/2" to 1" more in the front. Can I put another thin spacer in the front? If so...how?

First off stacking blocks are illegal in any state. And stacking spacers is also a very bad idea. and if you have 5 of them...

Buy a lift kit and do it right making it safe for you and those on the road around you..

you could buy 2" or 3" spacers online for maybe $30 - $50 depending where you look. just look around.
