Default Suspension Help

Need some help guys. I have an automatic 07 2 door. It currently has a skyjacker 2" budget boost on it with 33 x 12.5. I have a couple questions:

1. I recently put a bumper and winch on it. the extra weight dropped the front end noticably. Is there an easy fix by using a spacer and where do I buy it if so?

2. Because of above mentioned problem, I am considering going ahead and putting the skyjacker 3.5 suspension lift on. I have read several threads about having to replace driveshafts and yokes to do this on my automatic. Is this absolutely neccessary? I dont do much off roading, the lift is mainly for looks and a little hunting.

3. If I do this, is anyone using the 3.5 skyjacker and how do you like it. Are there any other lifts someone would recommend me look at instead? Definately want to be in the 3" to 4" range.

Thanks!

You could just add a 1" spacer to take up the sag.

You could change to the 2.5" Teraflex coil lift which would take care of the sag. It leveled mine up with a heavy bumper & winch
