    I think a spacer lift fits my needs well, and I'm not able to spend alot of money on my truck right now.

    Whats the difference between one of the name brand spacer and one from ebay? One piece of aluminum is just as good as another is it not?

    The link you posted says its for a 2wd. I wouldn't lift the front of a 4x4 3" with that kind of spacer. Maybe 2" up front and 1" in the back.

    I had the daystars (plastic/poly) spacers. If you're not in a hurry I would just keep an eye on the classifieds or free stuff sections, People are always getting rid of their lifts for something bigger. Hell, I gave away my daystars
