Will 265/75/R16 KO2 tires fit my 2nd gen?

-You can use stiffer springs and basically any shock you want.
-Or 5100 shocks set at a higher preload and your stock springs.
-Or 5100’s set at 0 lift and a stiffer spring. (Don’t use 5100’s to lift and also use a stiff spring).
-Or a spacer to preload your spring.
-Or adjustable coilovers if you’re feelin’ fancy

There are advantages and disadvantages to each. Spacers are generally frowned upon but it honestly just depends on how you use your truck and what you wanna spend. They are quick and easy but do not offer anything as far as ride quality or performance goes. Depending on the circumstance, they might even cause damage if used or installed improperly.

I always tell people to just do what they want, it’s their truck. However, if you’re gonna spend $200+ dollars and have the suspension taken apart anyways, why not spend a few extra bucks to have something that performs better? Plus, a lot of people are unaware of how many options there are. Everyone just wants to, “level the front so it looks a bit more aggressive”.

 

I am looking into a spacer, right now I can't afford to spend 300 on a performance kit, when I will only use it to go to school. I don't like to spend ridiculous amounts of money on things I don't need.
