The spacers are 1.5" high, but you can adjust your torsion bars higher than that at the cost of decreased ride quality and down travel:

How much actual lift does one gain from them, I assume if you go for 1.5" ones they are true 1.5" and stay that way unless you crank the t-bars?

I have been thinking about doing a new rear leaf pack that gives about 1.5" and a 1.5" BJ spacer for the front and wondering if this was the best way to go? It was either that or a 1" bodylift all around and I dont think I want one.

Course I could go 1" BL, the BJ 1.5 " spacers and the leaf pack, if someone could tell me if I was going to need to adjust anything. I dont want to cause problems with the t-case or anything else for that matter, which I think is the reason I stray away from the BL.

I would be ordering all of it through you Roger, save for the leaf packs.

The lift you get depends on how you set the torsion bars:

Thats what I figured Roger, if I kept the t-bars stock now it should net me some lift by not to much which is what I am aiming for.

What do you think about using the BJ spacers and the 1.5" leaf pack + a 1" body lift?

Thanks again

That is a common setup for runnings 33s:

May not even need the body lift for something like a 33x10.50 tire on the stock wheels.
