Should i go 2inchs or 3?
Im saving for a budget boost or a ba$tard pack.If i go with the bb should i get a 2inch or three.Because of scrap metal prices all the junkyards around me have no cars(crushed) so it will be hard to find the materials 4 the ba$tard pack.What do u think?
Any suggestions r appreciated.

yes, I used howles front spaces and a pair of adjustable shackles I got at the local autoparts, but I suggest a bastard pack for the rear better... I have stock tires for now buy I plan to go 31" when the money comes..
howlers spacers are supposed to be 2" but mine went up 2.5" so I balanced the back

you go 3" get new shocks, then rear extended brake lines, bump stops and front and rear tow points and you should be good. Then save up and regear and lock the rear and front ends..

Man!!! Looks like Im going to have to start cranking out some more spacers 
The height of the spacers is just under 2 5/16" The extra 5/16 is for spring-give.
BUT... If a custom length is desired. I can accomodate.
2"- You can safely re-use your stock shocks, rear brake line and trackbar. Stock tires will look just fine.
3"- Better look for some longer shocks, brake line and an adjustable trackbar (or relocate your lower mounting hole) Stock tires start to look like mini-spares (I suggest 31's..minimal trimming required)
