New Springs

I was thinking of getting Rustys 2.5" Springs will my skyjacker shocks for a 2" lift be ok. If I get these springs can I use my 2" spacers still or wil this throw out the geometry.
Thanks

the difference between 2.5 and 2 is pretty negligible as long as it's a true .5 of difference. If you chose to stack both then you will need an adj set of CAs, sway bar links, adj. tbar, a arm spacer, and longer shocks.

with 3in springs you would need a new tbar adj/or longer fixed (IRO)

you could get away with your 2in shocks too though 3in would ride better. Some recommend an A arm at 3in though its not required. If you have vibes though you're kinda screwed. Most people do either a BB on a dub or go straight to 4in because for what you pay to do it right at 3in you could have bought a complete 4in kit for a little extra (Zone/RC-X: $700)
