    You'll be fine. A 1/4 inch spacer on the front driver side would be nice to even out the taco lean, but sounds like you have a good set up. Also, a 0.25 inch "bro" lean front to back would be hardly noticeable so have no stresses about that.

    1.75 up front and 1.5 in the rear would be perfect. Last minute I realized if i leave my overload in it'll add about a half inch so i thought maybe a half inch up front (both sides) would keep it where I want it. Just didn't know if that's all correct or if there are any problems with it.
