I got a 2 inch block in the back and a 2 " coil spacers up front in my dodge, when install my 5 inch lift will I be able to use both of them still ? To make it 7" ?

Depends how you're lifting it. If the fronts coils it will depend on the brand, some such as Skyjacker say do not use their coils with spacers. Some people do anyways. For the rear, if you're lifting with blocks I would not use the 2" block stacking blocks is a terrible way to lift. But again some people do. Personally if you want a 7" lift, I'd just get 7" lift springs and 5" lift leaves and lose the spacers/blocks.

But in short yes you can so long as you dont stack front coil spacers.

As John123 said some companies recommend against lift coils with spacers but if you personally want to put lift coils w/ spacers then go for it. I don't see the issue too much other than people who've done it said its rides rougher.

Just get d70 springs **** the spacer. Lots needs to be addressed at 7" of lift. Very little of the 5" parts will work at 7" lift.
