I have a 2006 sport V6, two years ago I installed the cornfed 1in. leveling spacer. My front end has sagged back down to almost stock and I wanted to buy the daystar 2.5/1.5. Will this be too much spacer lift for front end and put everything in a bind??? Think for the help and Time

Many go a full 3" over the "non-sagged" stock height with no issues. When you exceed 3" over stock height alignment can become an issue. Over 3" some choose a diff drop to help the CV's. In the 2"-3" (over stock height) range there are no issues. Many have the Daystar and like it very much.

Depending on how much lift you want an alternative is to keep your current spacer and find some 4wd FJC springs. The FJC are a bit longer and a bit stiffer. All who have used them like the ride better than stock. "Too stiff" doesn't seem to be a descriptor post FJC spring install.

Post install you will want an alignment.

:cheers:

The Daystar 2.5/1.5 is a pretty popular option. You can raise the front 3" without any problems. If it's normal for the front springs to sag that much in 2 years, I might want to reconsider my plan to keep the stock springs when I do my 2.5/1.5 spacers. My ride is still firm and responsive with the stock set-up... much firmer than my stock Gen3... so I was planning to save some cash and use the stock components and retain XREAS until it all wears out.
