Best/cheapest option for front strut 2" level
I'm looking for new struts that will give me 2" of lift in the front, preferably adjustable. I already have a strut spacer so I need to find a 2" taller strut without breaking the bank. If someone could provide me with my options and links that would be great. Thanks

So.. are you going to remove the strut spacer and replace it with an adjustable strut... or are you looking to add an additional 2 inches

You can maybe go 1/2" higher without issue, but you definitely wouldn't even be able to bolt anything back together if you went with a 2" longer coilover setup AND a 2" spacer. That's 4" of lift. Your uca would be sitting on the coil and your cv axle would instantly be destroyed (if 4wd).
You really shouldnt go higher than 2.5" whether it be a longer coilover setup or spacer.

I believe he has a 6 inch lift now and is looking to go 8".. a set of Billies set to 2" should get you what you want.

Best and cheapest typically aren't related. Get the adjustable bilsteins. Buy once, cry once.
I went from a 2" spacer lift to bilsteins and the truck rides and handles much better.
