Default front end droop???

ok if i were to do a 4.5" lift with .75" spacer and shackle on my rig. im also going to run a JCR winch bumper with a Smittybuilt XRC8 winch. how much will my front end droop with that much weight?? should i get bigger spacers to level it out, or will i be fine.?? thoughts please! thanks.

Yeah i guess you can do that with a bigger spacer. I think with what like 200lbs, give or take 30lbs that it will drop it a good amount but also will give it a rougher ride in the front to. Just because of the amount of weight your putting on the front but I think just putting a bigger spacer maybe just fine.
