Yes I would assume so. When I was installing my 6'' Pro Comp Lift everything was stretched to the max, so a 2.5'' spacer would probably require linkages.

I assume you are talking new body style 04+
Not sure about any extenders, but you can't add and other spacer unless you got the coil overs with the lift. (The package come with a 6" spacer) You will likely also find the back sits lower than front. Order the add a leaf as well. I just had my springs re-arched and a new leaf added.

You CAN use the adjustable bilsteins up front with the spacer. Thats what I have and I didnt add any extenders or linkages.

You can stack the spacers too, technically. Its just not a good idea.

The spacers when stacked, the UCA hits on the side of spacer when its at full suspension drop, like when on a lift or when you jump something. Also it puts your ball joints and CV joints at not so good angles.

But I had 6 inch pro comp, with 2.5 spacer for about 50 miles before I took it out cause I was afraid to use 4wd with me angles as intense as they were.
