Default Biggest Damn Spacer I've Ever Seen

I initially ran spacers on my truck, but for a 3" 'lift' the spacer was only 1.75" tall itself.
THIS thing is easily THREE-TIMES that


This thing belongs to a '13 XLT 4wd that my local dealer had sitting on point. I was there yesterday having my truck serviced, and found this thing when I was bumping around the place.
The truck has what appears to be a 6"lift on it, but there's nothing on any of the had parts that I could see, indicating who's lift it is.
It had Pro Comp rear shocks on it, so I'm assuming it's a Pro Comp lift.
I don't know about anyone else, but I sure as heck wouldn't want that fricken thing holding up my front suspension while I was tooling around in the desert.

The rough country uses a spacer like that instead of longer struts...

A lot of 'em do, but usually only to give it 2" or so. They use spindles for the majority of the height increase.

This.
Would definitely upgrade to full lift coilovers, but OK for a street queen like most trucks

I've been running them on my rough country for 3 years... I'm not easy on the truck and I haven't had a single problem with the setup. It ain't pretty but not worth $1000 to change out IMHO
