    Hello, I’ve got a question, can I stack the 1.5” Front Poly Spacer with a 3” Spindle lift to result in more lift? Just want to make sure won’t cause any ware-and-tear on my truck. Also, if I were to stack them two together then do the Leaf spring add on that comes with the 3” spindle lift kit, would it make my truck squat since front is 4.5inches total?
    Thanks!

    I have a spacer and spindles up front and a leaf spring and shakles in the rear and the rear sits about 1”, but i do have camper and stuff in the bed. With just a leaf in the rear yes it will squat. I would recommend doing just shakles if you wanna keep your ride nice, leaf and shakles if you want the lift. The leaf will stiffen your ride though

    But the 1.5” spacer doesn’t really give 1.5” more like .5-1” if that. If I could go back in time I wouldn’t have done the spacer not worth the headache for the little lift. When I install my doetsch lift im not gunna even bother to put it back in.

    It says that it will level the front and back, did it for you? And how big of a lift you getting?
