Default Driver side 1/4" low can i use spacer?

I have a 2 inch coil spacer. Could I cut it down to a 1/4" and use it as a spacer to raise my driver side up a 1/4" so the front sits level?

Lemme make sure I read that right... 1/4" is all your off? Why are you even worried about it? My stock Jeep is almost a 1/2" off! Just leave it

I didn't have the cash for full spring stacks so I went with an AAL. it's been 2 weeks and the AAL has sagged now it only 1/4 off. I don't even notice it. although it's a good thing I'm an old school Cali boy and love the Prerunner stance!!!
