Rough Country Level Kit... 2" strut kit or spacers?

[bnreed3]

Which one would you recommend? Strut kit about $350, while the spacers are about $50. I am assuming the strut kit would perform better since it isn't compressing the shocks like the spacers would be.

The spacers are not compressing the shocks you are just adding them to the top of the shock if your not going to be doing a lot of offroading then the spacers will work fine but you loose down travel and can damage the shock if your bottoming the shock spacers aer more for a on road look.

If your going to be doing a lot of offroading then go with the strut kit this will increase suspension travel unlike the spacer.

You will find a lot of good info here https://www.shocksurplus.com/pages/lifted-and-leveling-struts-vs-strut-spacers

I put readylift spacers that go on top of the strut assembly and it rides the same as it did before. Just be careful not to buy preload spacers, those spacers are installed on top of the spring and compress the spring and will affect ride quality
