I joined a while back and have mostly been lurking, I really enjoy the forum. I have a 99 2wd Limited and am looking at eliminating the rear sag and going with a couple inches of lift. I have a limited price range (500 max) and I was looking at bilstein hds all around, with OME 906s in the rear and possibly a spacer in the front. Wheelers has a 3/8th that I thought might work. My question is concerning the 906s. I have read that 99 coils are taller, and I'm wondering if the 906s will give me any lift at all, or if I should go up to 890s or 891s. Can anyone fill me in? Thanks so much in advance!

Spacers up front and OME coils and shocks will work in the rear.
Edit:
How much lift are you looking for? I can put together a list for you to help you out.

I am also wondering the same thing. How much cheaper is it to go with the spacer in the front rather than one shocks all around?

I replaced my 1999 "tall" Limited OEM rear coils with brand new ones and it really didn't solve the rear sag much. I'm a little bummed. I'm hoping to maybe get a 1" spacer in the rear, unless there's such a thing as an aftermarket rear spring set that's just 1" taller than the OEM but I'm not sure about that.
I have a set of 1999 "tall" front springs brand new and also used if you're interested in buying. I checked both the new and used next to each other and they're exactly the same height which indicates the old ones are not worn out or compressed. I also have a half inch front spacer. The 99 talls coils plus the half inch spacer will give you about a 3/4" lift up front.
