I just lifted my rear with Downey 2" springs and WabFab 5" shackles. and its a nice setup IMO.
Dont forget shocks too.
220 for springs
85 for shackles
80 for shocks
___ for hardwear
worth it.

I just used a shackle kit from Autozone for $15. The back doesn't sag anymore and looks great. I just used the very last hole in the shackle. I probably need to get some longer shocks in the back now, though (speed bumps are a little rough). Normal driving is great.
