Just wondering, if i stack an inch of washers under my front coils will i have to get longer shocks? Or is there *ANY* way around it if it is recommended?

Thanks

No you would not, at two inches in the front you may need new shocks, but that is only if you are frequently flexing the suspension to its maximum and minimum points.

No but you should get an alignment. I reccomend Coils from an F150, they are safer, and only cost about $200. When I put my 1'' coil spacers on, I didn't notice any difference, then I got the F150 coil springs which are 2 inches bigger, and it made a big difference. It allowed me to fit 32x11.5 inch tires with no problem!!
