Adjustable spacers?

I am looking at adding a leveling kit to my truck when my tires wear out. Just wondering if anyone knows of an adjustable spacer for these trucks? Main reason I ask is a front winch bumper with full grill guard is the next mod. Need the bumper to protect against deer out here.

i would not use them.
my opinion is they are the same as welding a nut into the spring.
do it rite with extended springs, or leave it stock.

I honestly don't see how it could be bad to use a design that has been around for at least 15 years. Especially considering some of the junk I have seen people put on their vehicles. And how would welding a nut to a spring accomplish anything.
