Default What Front Spacer to Level??

Ok, so I just added a bumper and winch, and now my front end is sagging a bit too much for my liking. I was was wondering what size spacer I could put on top of the spring to get rid of the sag. Also, my problem is that I am not sure how a spacer would work because I already have a 2" budget boost, so there is already a spacer under the spring. Anyone done something like this? I need some ideas on how to fix this.
Thanks

How much did it sag? The best solution would be to go with a longer coil

Don't stack spacers.... Get a set of 2.5 coils and then add a 3/4"-1" spacer

BUT DONT EVER STACK SPACERS!

**Edit**Just saw this on the forum

Like mentioned above, I'd just look for a used set of 2.5" lift springs for the front and throw them on. Further, I'm a huge fan of adjustable coil over spacers and ran them on every one of my jeeps until I went coilover up front. The adjustable spacers solve problems like you are facing which is every time you do a mod you need to buy or change things. ACOS can be adjusted in short time to correct droop by simply extending them...
