I am wondering if a 2" level with a larger rear block or add a leaf will cause accelerated wear on front end parts? I want to get a small bit of lift and clear 33s, but I am being told a lot of mixed reviews about ball joint life, etc. Thanks.
Tried searching but it always ends up to this thread and I went through a nice few pages but couldn't find an answer.

Agreed. 33's will fit all day long. Maybe get some Bilsteins and set them at .75" or 1.5" if you're concerned. Any level WILL put extra stress on front end components, exactly HOW MUCH stress no one really knows. Has anyone had their front end disintegrate? I don't think so.

I'm currently only running the fronts, I haven't gotten the rears yet as I'm being cheap. The rears are said to help do the same for rear. They reduce the jerkiness of the rear end, you know that jumpiness you get when you hit a bump? I've heard nothing but great things about them.

Bilstein 5100's set at 1.5" run really nice. Little stiffer than stock shocks but MUCH more comfortable as it's a lot more controllable. Less body roll, and overall less "wobbly".

Anyone that tells you that they ride softer than factory is simply wrong. But I like the stiffer ride. Can't wait to do the fronts, I'm over the nauseating floatiness.
