Would this be level??
4x4 blocks and 2.5 AS on a 4x2?? Im trying to get the look of a 4x4 with a 2" AS so I can fit 305/55/20s. I know the 4x2s are lower in the front compared to 4x4s so im thinking 2.5s AS would bring it up to the same height as a 4x4 with a 2" AS. Did I confuse you??

I know he's got the blocks already, thanks to me!
It would make perfect sense that it "should" be level. Stock 2wd sits a little higher in the rear, so putting 4x4 blocks would make the rear the height of a 4x4, so a 2.5" up front should make it damn near level. Measure a stock 2wd and add 2" and that's where your rear height will be, then figure if the spacer will give you enough height in the front.

Here it is with just the 2.5" AS.

And after the 2" block.

Give me about an hour and I'll get you the measurements front and back.

OK. Sitting on flat ground in my garage it measure 37 3/4" in front and 40 1/4" in the rear from the ground to the top of the fender opening. Without the 2" block in the rear it would still have 1/2" of rake back to front. HTH

The stock 2wd shocks will work for a short time, but will top out over any decent size bump. I swapped mine out for a set of Bilstein 5100s.
