    no, i dont know if they make drop brackets for 2" or 2.5" lift. i just installed the springs and aligned it.

    i think you'll be fine. the height of the rear will stay the same unless you change the springs or blocks in the rear. the difference is with an extra 2.5" in the front will cause a little bit more weight to transfer to the back but it wont really be noticeable.

    i put a lot of mulch and firewood in it. i think the most i've had so far is so that the back is level with the front. and with another inch or two on the tires i think it might be a little to close

    how much weight you planning on putting in the bed? i dont think you'd have to worry about tires scraping.

    but im afraid that i will loose clearance in the back and when i load the bed that it might scrape the tires. any chance that would happen?

    2" in the rear plus the 2.5" in the front would make it sit low in the front still. if you just lifted the front 2.5" then it would be damn near level. personally i wouldnt put that extra 2" in the rear if your lifting the front only 2.5"s because then 31's may look small back there but in the front they will fit perfect. thats just my opinion though

    question for you. i am trying to decide how to lift my truck. i was thinking about doing it how you did with just 2 inches up front but now im thinkin about a 2.5 inch kit that will do the back to. if there was another 2 inches of lift on the back of your truck do you think the 31's would look small?

    i put 2 new shocks on the driver side because i broke both of the top mounts on the factory shocks. i'm gonna get all new shocks for it eventually. i have the factory quad shock setup so i'm gonna have to wait a little bit to do that.
