Ok, so if I use the 6" springs on the rear and 4" springs on the front how close to a stock height would that get me? Will the soft ride spring packs in the rear affect my load hauling and trailer towing capabilities?
Which would be better the above method or a 2" kit with new front springs and rear add a leafs to get the height I'm after and keep my hauling and towing capabilities.

Thanks

If you put two inch springs in the front then put four inch in the rear & adjust with blocks but I woudn't put add a leafs in anything they try to put arch in a negative or zero arch spring which will make your ride worse

So the 2" kit with the 2 1/2" front springs and 6" rears which would get rid of the rear blocks completely would be better?

So does anyone know if the 6 inch sky jacker springs in the back and 2 inch springs in the front will work right. My rear springs are shot and is there any source to get new hangers and bolts they are shot to thanks

mine have been good for the last 2.5 years. lost about 1/2 inch, still have3 1/2 inch's or so off the bump stop. ride much better, probably not as good as the customs out there, but I paid less than 4 bills through 4wheelsparts .com. They are actually a lot better than I thought they would be when Im loaded with 5k of firewood or towing. Helped 4wheeling a lot too. I should of paid a little extra for the life warranty though.
