Well I've seen the front to rear swap but if I add in the coil spacers. Won't that put my control arms at a bad angle and could lead to them breaking ?

Spend the extra money and be happy with the results. A "cheap" lift will only **** you off with poor ride quality and death wobble.

Rough country has a good and cheap lift... 4.5 and 1in slavers should be alright andbget you 33's tucked with alittle trimming... I had a 3.5 ez ride lift on my 97 with 2in spacers... aftermatkyt backspaced wheels and I tucked 33's... however I got deathwobble from stretched arms... old man emu stabilizer took care of that but it wasn't a real fix...
This is an oldie but a goodie.
