Sanity check my choices...
I'm a casual off roader and the truck is 100% stock right now and has X-Reas. No rock hopping but lots of forest service roads and ski slopes that get a little dicey but not bad. I have hit my diff and oil pan shield a couple times. DAC in 4-low is my friend.

I've picked out...

==> Daystar or similar 2.5" front and rear since I want to keep the rake.

==> Spidertrax 1.25"

Stock Dunflops for a while. I'm concerned about how these mods will effect wear on suspension/shocks/CVs.

I'm open to suggestions for changes but I'm on a budget.

BONUS ROUND:

Are the above choices compatible with the weight of an ARB bumper and maybe even a winch on top of that?

If a aftermarket bumper is in your future you really need to look past spacers. I would suggest OME or coil-overs.

I think I'll pass on the bumper than. I don't want to pull the X-reas.

Xreas = worthless once you get a good suspension in there. I never noticed it was even gone. But since you are just a casual offroader, I think a bumper is a bit over-kill anyways, and spacers will be just fine for your needs.
