I thought the bilsteins only gave a 2in level? I just ordered some for the same reason but to make my 2wd truck sit like a 4wd

Yup your mostly right. I have heard guys say they get anywhere from 2 - 2.25 - 2.5inches out of their bilsteins. But no more than 2.5, and i think most get right about 2". They should be awesome on your 2WD truck, seems im the only one having issues and they dont appear to have anything to do with the shock itself, just the setup im running

Well i hope you figure it out. And by the way a cheap 1/4 wheel spacer as horrible as the idea sounds isnt that bad. I ran them on my old power strokes for a while because for some dumb reason i wanted a 15.5 wide tire for a while. And those were hardcore work trucks. I towed 10k to 15k every weekend and had 1 ton in the bed at least once a week.

Those wheel spacers never gave me a bit of trouble. And it gave it a neat look.

Give it a try. Its only 30 bucks for 4 cant hurt.
