Links for BJ spacer lift. 1991 pickup.

Tired of searching for what the best BJ spacers are, what to use to lift the rear to make it level with the front after BJ spacers, and what shocks to buy (80 on road 20 off road) to make up for the additional 2-3 inches of lift. If anyone's got the time post the links to everything I'd need thag worked for you!...To complete the lift and get an additional 2-3 inches of lift; and I'll get to ordering! Thanks to whoever takes the time to post!

I would buy the OME kit with the torsion bars and forget the BJ spacers

I have a 91 4x4 with a 22r swap. I just did a 3" lift on my truck I bought my BJ spacers on ebay and they seem pretty good. If gave me about 3.250 up front. In the rear I used two extra leaves from a spare set of 4" bds Yj jeep srings. They gave me 3" of extra lift in the rear. This worked out perfect because I don't like lift blocks and I haul a lot of fire wood so they will handle the weight better now. The install was very easy and i came with everything needed. Grinding the UCA was the biggest pain and it wasn't even that bad. It took about 2.5 hours from taking of the last lug nut to lowering the jack when I was done. I still have to fix the alignment.....and I have a set of 33 10.50 15's and some new wheels to put on this weekend. Here are some before and after pics.

I think SDORI is one of the original 1.5" BJ spacer vendors and still sells them. I'd go with them personally, oh wait I did.
I say if you're gonna install BJ spacers and then loosen your t-bars and drop the front back down 1-1.5", no need to touch the rear. My truck was super flexy when I did that and removed my swaybar blazen8 of blazeland has shown a bunch of research here on IFS and says skip BJ spacers, they're kinda pointless...I don't disagree with this.

I like the "Vault-Tec" logo. Awesome game
