Default 2 to 3 inch coil lift?

I want to get a small lift on before our Great Lakes area run at the end of June. I was going to go with the Teraflex 2.5 coil lift but they are on back order. Can anyone recommend something else of good quality that is in the same price range?

Have you looked at the OME lift. It has a very nice ride. http://www.northridge4x4.com/proddet...K-LIFT&cat=272

I went with Rusty's 2" coil lift because no other "small" coil lifts were available at the time. I added front and rear trac bars and discos on the front....did the whole thing for under $600.....40k miles later I am still very, very happy with my choice.....I got 3 inches out of it even after a whinch and bumper.

I went with Zone offroads 3". It came out to be 2.5" with front and rear bumpers, tire carrier and winch. Very happy with it. plenty of room for 35's.

Default Any of the 2-2.5" Coil Lifts eliminate rake

I am currently running 1 3/4 Daystar spacers up front and I am at level. I am interested in going a little bigger on the lift but I am concerned about two things:
1. My 33" tires looking small
2. If I run a coil lift without spacers, picking that factory rake back up.

I read that the TF 2.5 coil lift kit is 3" in the fornt and 2" in the back. I am thinking that might work. Does anyone have the TF coil kit with 33's? If so, could you post a photo?

I bought Rough Country 2.5 coils and shocks when they ran the special at the end of last year.

It's was OFF but has been backordered again for a few weeks. Coils should be in by June 15th or soon. I do know of a dealer with several kits in stock.
