    After doing some research on here, I have decided to go with coil spring spacers and shackle lift kit:https://4x4.fatbobsgarage.com/mobil...hackle-lift-kit-2wd-5lug-1995-2004-p8506.aspx. I realize this kit does not deliver the full advertised lift, but I am OK with that, just want a slightly higher stance. I was able to find the recommended shocks on a thread on here as well, but I was unable to find any info as far as any other mods needed to align the front or install these items. I had seem somewhere that the rear shackles might require the mounting bracket to be relocated? I apologize if this was already adressed on a different post but I couldn’t find anything. Does anyone have pics of this kit already installed, even just the front or rear? Thanks!

    Stock again- rip slug
    If you're gonna go this route, do the Spacer only and skip shackle. You wont even be level with only the spacer, but close. Expect 1 inch lift in the front with single cab and about .75 inch with extended cab
