Not exactly sure what your trying to do? If the truck already has a level kit you cannot add/stack a second one and unless something is wrong with the current one why replace? There were several different brands of those type kits made with the poly spacer. To install or remove them will require a spring compressor. Also most on this site feel that a 2.5" level is the max you should go. The 3" can cause some really severe angles.

im not sure how much lift that poly spacer gives you but the spacer on my 3" kit (on top of the strut) only measures 1.75". you said the poly spacer is 1" but your truck looks like its up about 2.5-3" in the front right now. like ab46501 said, the only way to get that poly spacer out is with a spring compressor so i'd just leave it like it is. if your trying to get clearance for bigger tires, you could try and see if they will fit. if not, then change out the spacers.
heck yea a 3 inch makes a world of diff i dont care what any one on here says but it does i got pretty close to 4 1/2 inches of lift but my leveling kit is a true 3 inch it measures a little over 2 inches not 1.75 like the others ..take a look at my pics in my gallery ..ive had a 2.5 inch leveling kit before a yes the 3 inch makes a huge diff

My guess is from the pictures in your album and what you measured to the top of the fender well is that you already have a 2 1/2 to 3 inch level. The 2 1/2 to 3 inch level is what is supposed to be acheived. It is not what the spacer measures. I went out and measured to the top of my fender well and it was 40.75 inches. I have a 32 inch tire so we are about the same and mine is a 2 1/2 kit.

It is that skyjacker kit Thanks alot bigcheif I searched all over to try and find out what kit it was and did not find that. Now that says its a 2.5 do you guys think its worth it to pull the truck apart over .5"

No, I don't think its worth it. If you want more lift just install a BL, or a 4"-6" suspension. Just my .02 worth though.
