oh well the RS5017's were for the back. for the front i bought some procomps that are made for their lift kit. they were the perfect length from the measurements that i took.

wheel spacers suck unless they are the really high quality ones with their own set of studs..... i work at a trie place and have seen too much nasty effects of wheel spacers... i would say jsut get new wheels.... either will place mroe load on the bearings, but the new wheels wont have to have the worry about the spacers failing and cuasing damage

Run run 4" backspaced wheels no real issues I did get it to rub on my TJM on full front end stuff. I need to trim the TJM wings or move it up to cure it.
As far as front shocks I am running the Rancho RS5167 shocks. They work good you gain about a extra 1 1/2" of extra downtravel with them over stock. The front has settled a little due me wheeling it so I might have to turn the front up a turn or so. I think I am getting about 2" lift over stock at least with the BJ spacers. When I first installed the spacers the front was level with the rear with my FJ80 coils so the front was high up there probably about 3" or so but has sagged since then.

Here's when I first bought it I was running 33's and stock suspension with sagging rear coils

After lifting with a 1.4" BL and 1.5" BJ spacers and FJ80 coils

See how small the 33's look now?
