It does sit a lil like a hot rod nose down. I think with spacers in front now front maybe 1/2 inch taller than rear now but appears to be level with naked eye. If you put spacers in front and back I think u would be close to stock look but a lil higher all around. I also didn't want anymore lift in rear cause as it is now with bigger wheels and tires tailgate is already waist high. This is best picture I could find prespacers you can see it is a lil shorter in front.

thank u very helpful!! I think its a great thing I just need to make sure it will fit in the trailer if it sat 2inches higher lol. (revised) I just let air out of my tires to about 1.5 psi down the road I go!! ride for the weekend and it stays outside at rv site anyways! no big deal with onboard air

May even out then. I have a lil taller tires but think hard roof sticks up taller than one I built for mine.

looks like that set of spacers u showed the link to will only work on the front and not the rear unless u don't have self leveling rear shocks?

Not sure if they will or not. I liked the way it looked with them only in front never attempted to put them in rear. All 4 are definitely same size when they came in the box. If that helps.

yeah pretty sure they wont fit on the back.I was totally with u about putting them on the front and not the rear but yesterday I put on the mud busters and wow did it make the back look like it was sitting way lower so no I figure just putting them on the front will make it look weird?

Yup.

Kawi teryx 1" and got new lug nuts
I want to buy the 2" lift for the front witch this thread further back said is 1 inch spring spacers for the front and he said it raises 2" form just taking the slop out but I was looking at the rear and it looks like the 4 that come in the set will not fit the rear is that right? So what I wanted to do was just do like he did and add them just to the front to tighten shocks and give better spring pressure and at the same time lift it 2 inches. so with that said all was good then I put on the mud busters and it takes away wheel well space and now I figured If I just did it in the front it would look weird since the mud busters already make it look lower in the rear? please advise

Do you have any pictures of the mudbusters installed? Pros? Cons?

Just put some on the front today. Bottomed out the shock a lot yesterday. Riding again tomorrow, so I should be able to report on the difference in ride quality.
