Coil Spring spacers?

Im looking at getting some coil spring spacers for my 1999 f250 so i can raise the front 2" due to the fact that i have helper springs in the back and sits up high in the back and i wanted to level it out more.

Is the spacer the only thing i need?
do i need stud extenders and what about extender for the bump stop or anything else?

and any1 know of a good place to get cheap ones?
best iv found is this on ebay which yeah, prolly aint the best but i dont wanna spend a hole bunch of money at the moment. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Bille...Q5fAccessories

All you should need are the coilspring spacers. Most people use Daystar spacers, but those should be ok as long as they are decent quality.

yeah, iv looked at some of them but they will run me 130$ and the only down fall to the aluminum ones is that they are metal and could possible squeal if the rub or what not.

and so would i even need to use those Stud Extenders?



Oh haha and i got projector headlights and my truck has alot of rake to the back so i hope this levels it out more to where my lights shine out farther like they are supposed to

I can't see you needing the shock extenders, but I'm not that familar with the front suspension on the F-250 4x2's.
