why are you wanting to lift? if its to fit bigger tires you can do that without going higher. Another 2" will just give you more problems then you are financially prepared to deal with

stop right there. 35s and $0 do not mix. its gonna take a lot more than 2" spacers to make 35s work safely as well.

coil spacers are like $25. hate to say it, but you gotta pay to play. if its a yard truck and you have some time on your hands go for it. just don't be upset when they split as you put weight on it.
