2.5" coil lift? No problem, lots of people add spacers on top. (spacer lift? Many will recommend not stacking spacers, but some do it without issue)
The caster will be a bit lower, causing 'slightly' flightier steering. Both axles will be a bit more offset to one side. The driveshaft joints will run at slightly steeper angles. etc. Then again, you are just regaining the height lost to the bumpers, so you shouldn't notice anything at all.
