buy a set of bilstein or pro comp adjust struts. the spacers are crap compared to the struts imo.

I run spacers, but...... I'm interested in the Bils now. I think my spacers allow the struts to over extend.

I have a new HBS kit in the garage, never used, (went with Bilsteins instead). Don't remember if it's 2 or 2.5", I'll have to check. I'll take a pic and post them in the for sale section this weekend to follow forum rules. Give you first shot if your interested

They ride nice? I've been looking at those mainly for the reason of not having to mess with coil compressor.

They ride awesome. Honestly it sits 2" higher and rides exactly the same as stock. That's the reason I got them also I hate spring compressors

Wow , I've never seen a bad review on the Bilsteins ? ?
I installed the Bilstein 5100s set @+2.8" and installed Mevotech UCA'S myself , pretty easy install imo . As far as coil compression , use a quality spring compressor ( rent it from autoparts store) and use common sense ( no offense) and keep safety in mind .
$190 new for the Bilsteins shipped from a member here.
$115 new for Mevotecs shipped , from Rock Auto ( paint the Mevotecs prior to install , people say the rust )
Ride quality = noticable BETTER than stock on my 2014 4x4 QC ! !
You do not have to change the UCAS , I did for cheep insurance due to some having upper ball joint issues with a level .
I'd say the total install for a DIY er is a 4 out of 10 difficulty ( I'm a mechanic by trade ) not automotive.
Took me about 4 hrs not including paint times ,
OEM setup
UCAs &struts removed
Painted Mevotecs
Bills and Mevotecs installed
GREAT RIDE QUALITY , and gave me exactly 2.8 " and almost a perfect level !
Hope this helps !

I am using 2.5 spacers. The truck drives like stock, i noticed ABSOLUTELY no difference. I dont understand why everyone says there ****.
Here is it right after i got it done
