it may help to include something like the size of spacers you plan on installing....3/4" is alot different than 2". 3/4" wouldn't make much difference, but something bigger would create other issues I would imagine.

Did the super lift not get rid of the rake?? 1-3/4" is what I used when mine was stock to get rid of the rake. Once I got new springs they were longer up front so I have no more rake. IMO I would not waste my money on spacers and just wait for springs... JMO

I have put a 1 3/4in in the rear to help with the weight I carry. No issues yet other than needing longer shocks 28" Ranchos extended versus 26"extended bilsteins.

How big of tires you wanting to run??? Because 4" is huge! My 3" is really a 4". just so you know. Let me know one of these days if you want to meet up to check it out. I may go out to the Puerco Monday morning but not sure. Or maybe tomorrow w/ sandiasnow let us know
