2" budget boost installed !!!
It took me 2-1/2 hours this afternoon to finish up my 2" budget boost lift and everything went real well but I have a question............ I seated all the coils into the upper and lower rubber pads real well but was wondering if the lift will be noisy or if so will it settle in and quiet down? I only took it a few blocks when I was done and it popped/ creaked a few times. No big deal just wondering if it will mellow out or if it is just part of adding the spacers that will have to be lived with. Thanks.

Double check the coil spring hold downs to make sure the coil didnt move and come loose. And your sway bar links might be tight and pulled in the rubber. Other than that, 2" isn't much so you should be good! What about a pic or 2?

All spacers/isolators for the coils go on the top of the spring. The bottom (axle) end of the spring sits directly on the spring perch. There should be a small bracket that holds the spring to the axle. With the adjustment in ride height you should loosen and re tighten your control arm bolts and check/ adjust your alignment as needed.
