Well im not sure that you want to do that, I think they only recommend going 2" max when using coil spacers. Otherwise you will throw your camber adjustment way off, and it won't be able to be adjusted back. Plus I think if your camber adjustment is off really bad you will wear your tires out.
 






Like he said, I dont think it would ever align.
 






Don't do it, you'll be way out of alignment specs. I tried to cheat once then settled on the Skyjacker 2" lift. Now I'm saving up for the 5.5....

Save your money and time.
 






hey hank, wut happened when u tried it after all
 






I ended up with a pigeon toe'd explorer and a broken brake line....

Anything over 2" and the brake lines are too short. Plus you cant get enough camber adjustment to bring the wheels back... Looked like this \ / Steering was squirly too...

Very bad...
 






damn ur tires were that off in the front, shiiiiiiiiiiiiii, forget that $hit. well thanx guys, is there any other way 2 get more lift in the front
 






the only thing I could tell ya to get more than 2" up front would be to buy a lift kit. But those can get expensive!!!! If you just want to get your truck up in the air a little bit, you should buy a body lift and a larger set of tires. Well hope ya come up with something :D
 






Yep, that's it. Spend the money and get the 5.5... You'll be happier.
