brake hoses, abs sensor wire length, and pinion angles are all possible issues

Yes.
I realize I'll have the same issues as a 4" spring lift.

I'll clarify.
I can't see any problem using using the spacers in conjunction with the springs...am I wrong?

Yes, no problem using the two systems together. Granted, l didn't go with a full two inch spacer, cut them in half on bandsaw. So with the two inch Terra Firma lift and one inch spacer...it added a nice three inch lift. Originally, l added the spacers to factory springs...springs were just dead from old age and bottomed repeatedly on trails, so removed the springs for new TF lift. Wanted a bit more, but not four inches, so l cut my spacers in half.

Now, l will say...my sway bars have been removed front and rear...so l'm unsure what affect, if any, this would play on overall height. I'm assuming it would have no affect, but just wanted to mention it.
