I am currently looking at lift kits and feel that a 2.5 would be good with my 33” tires. My concern is that when I get the money to add front, rear bumpers and a winch it will sag down to a 1-1½” lift. Then I am spending more money to get some spacer. I feel like I would be paying twice. If that is true then I should get a 3.5” lift so it settles to a 2.5” lift. What is you experience with this issue?

 

Stacking spacers generally isn't a good idea. How long will it be until you add the weight? If it will be a while, go with the spacers for now and just swap out to coils later. Hard to plan the coils now when you don't know how much weight you will be adding. Or even if you will be adding.

If you start with tall coils and no extra weight, you just may be spending money on adjustables and driveshafts and all that good stuff, which will push the purchase of the bumpers/winch back even further.
