Upgrading my suspension. Any thoughts on spacers?
Silly question, but I'm not sure that I want a macho lift. One inch should do it for me.
Also, I've replaced both driver's side springs, front and back, less than a year ago to correct a lean. With labor, that'd be $400 that I'm throwing away if went with new springs all around. Besides, I'm trying to save money for either an engine replacement down the line or, if I get antsy, a CDL upgrade this spring.
I'm really just trying to get some lift back back to the front after adding a winch and winch bumper. Since it doesn't appear that the springs look too tired (see pics), one inch should be enough.
So, would good shocks all around and 1" spacers in the front be a good option?

what good will an inch do? I think maybe last year when you were correcting your lean you should have thought about what you would want in the future so you wouldn't half to buy things twice. buy new springs or leave it alone, it doesn't look bad.
If you're running a winch and bumper you need a set of HD springs. The factory springs will settle over time and a winch and bumper will accelerate the problem. Putting spacers on factory springs will just put extra leverage without added support making the truck even more top heavy.
As much as I hate them yes you can if running either OME or RTE hd front and rear coils.
Might check out the prices at Lucky 8, Justin has the hole set up for $628 or the coils and new OME Sport shocks for about $50 more.
