Default Are 2 shock spacers ok?

Have a 2005 king ranch and want to lift the front a little more.. Would it be safe to have 2 shock spacers on each shock on the front?

Do you mean a leveling kit on top of another leveling kit? If so quit trying to ******-rig things and do it properly by buying a 4" suspension lift.

no if you are talking about two 2" spacers... you CV can handle only about 3" .
yes, if you are talking about two 1" spacers... but then, you better get one 2"...

The 4" is a little pricey, is there a way to maybe extend the cv axle?

Plain and simple answer is no, do not stack spacers or leveling kits. As stated do it right or don't do it at all. 4" leveling spacer would make short work of your cv's.
