What size (height) front end leveler is everyone using?

I really want to raise the front end of my 4x4 SCrew, and have pretty much decided to go with the Autospring setup. What size kit are most people using and wha has been your end result? Are you happy with raising your ride? Any adverse affect on alignment or ride quality?

I just had the 1.5" spacer which is actually 1-5/8" installed and got a little over 2" of lift on my FX4 Supercrew. I couldn't be more pleased. While the rear is still a little higher than the front it looks level. I wouldn't want to go any higher in the front unless I was going to lift the rear also. I had the allignment done to correct the toe which the shop said was only slightly off. I put 315/70/17 BFG all terrains on the stock rims and have no rubbing. The ride quality is still great. I think it looks great and have had the same comment from others. Sorry, I don't have the equipment to post pics, spent all my money on the truck.

1 1/2" Autospring spacer. Rides like stock. Looks better than stock.

2" RevTek spacer. No problems and the ride seems to be the same. The ride changed a little after putting larger rubber on though.

2.5" Daystar. Same look at the autospring, same ride as stock. You can't go wrong either way.

I installed the autospring leveling kit on my 2004 lariet screw and it looks awsome. This kit is easy to install compared to the Daystar kit and costs less. I helped install a Daystar kit on my friends truck. When he helped me with my autospring kit he was angry he didn't buy this kit instead. With the 2-1/2" kit my truck now sits 40" to fender in rear & 39-3/4"to fender in front. I still need to get an alinment which is going to lower the front a little.
