    I got the billstein 5100s set them @ .85 and used the 1.65 eibach spacers

    however i feel like my truck is not high enough in the front it could use another 1/2 to 1 inch

    What are my options to get this 1/2 to 1 inch in the front can i use spacers?

    I guess you shouldn't run those springs at anything higher then .85 :( it was a bitch to compress it @ .85 sounds like a nightmare at 2.5

    Could the billies and coils go hand in hand with aftermarket spindles?

    like 2.5 inches but the leaf springs in my back end haven't settled yet so the back is still higher, the front shocks/springs are settling much quicker then the back ones :(
