custom height spacers?

I'm needing some 2" front spacers, and 1.5" rear spacers .... is there anyone that makes custom height spacers or any company you know of that offers spacer lifts of that size?

Just thinking of my options here.

Looks like Toytec has 2" front spacers, so do you oknow of anyone with 1.5" rear spacers? Perhaps a Daystar 2.5" spacer in the rear might compress that much?

I can (and have) cut down coil spacers to lower heights. Here is a pair of 2" normal spacers cut down to 1.5" tall:



And 1" tall:

oh hell man, i've cut up a bunch of stuff on my 4Runner with the dremel, and even started to use a grinder. then again ... i do admit it'd have been nice to have power tools instead of hand tools for compressing coils. that gives me hulk-arms.
