I'm running Jeff's Spacers. 1.5's in front, 2" in back. I've flipped my strut mounts, but I need to order jeffs spacers so I can get some more droop. Crown Vic shocks in the rear. I also run a RR 2" BL. I ran 31x10.5's on 8" rims with 3.75" backspacing with just the coil spacers. Now that I've got the BL on, I've test fitted a set of 32's and 33's with no rubbing issues (I've trimmed my fenders), and will be running 33's as soon as I get some tcase gears and different set of wheels.  For the budget minded and daily driven, it doesn't get much better than this. Little Booger does pretty decent offroad, too. Considering I have $2,200 in my entire rig (including vehicle purchase), and the guys i wheel with got $10k+.


I'd go this route and spend the money you have left on a spool/locker, or rock sliders, or bumpers, or cheap winch (Smittybuilt 8k for ~$400), or put it towards Tcase gears. Add any of these items to your TracKick with 32's and the added ground clearance they bring, and you'll be better off than having $1,1000 in just your lift.


Just my .02.

You just described my EXACT setup. I love it!  Do you have any issues with the caliper hitting the spring at full turn?
