    My point is, I drive a Pro. I’d rather have a perfectly good coil spacer on my Fox Pro suspension than replace it with cheap 5100s.

    Cool. And I would much rather have at Fox DSC’s. My point about the 5100’s was directed towards the OP and anyone with stock suspension wanting to lift their truck on a budget

    Bigger bump stops will save you from breaking a shock, but there will still be the problem with too much droop- which causes damage to CVs.

    3' ready lift, 285 feds, 2'' wheel spacer.
    Dude I did a 3'' readylift on my 2018 and it rides like stock. I don't plan on taking my truck off-road much if at all. If you plan on off roading the maybe save up and get a 0-3'' coilover for the front and stuff you listed. But Most people on here talk shit about spacer lifts,but I have a few friends with 2nd gens that have wheeled their spacer lifted trucks and they didn't brake stuff. But it's not crawling or anything. I think personally I'm not gonna drop 3-4k into a IFS lift on anything, I'll grab an old toyota and SAS it and wheel that. My truck is to pretty :rofl: But don't listen to haters on here. I can't wait to Mall Crawler mine out and make a post and watch the Insults fly . DO WHAT YOU WANT it's ultimately your money and truck. Do what makes you happy with it. Just my humble 2 cents.
