    Ok, I am really leaning towards getting a basic 6 inch Fabtech lift for my 05 DC 4x4 TRD. My question is, can I down the road swap out the coil spacers for coilover shocks? I am just wanting the lift for looks and little offroading. A little help please. I have read threads but dont remember reading anything about this.
