2wd lift help

hi guys. I am hoping some of you guys would know of any cheap lift of about 2 inches I could put on my X. It’s a 2wd I’m new to big trucks like this so I don’t really know what I need. I try looking on google but see so many different kits but they all look like they come with different parts. I just need to take these bad “spacers” off because they’re terrible. Thanks.

what is “horrible” about the spacers ?

lifting the 2wd Ex is not a cheap proposition becacue you need to correct the camber issue caused by lifting it, aside ftom spacers you need either new radius arms or relocation brackets snd adjustable ball joint spacers to do the job “ correctly. fabtech or procomp are your choices

I’m doing a fabtech lift in the next couple weeks. I was able to score a full kit from the local boneyard. While I’m at it I’m changing ball joints, poly bushings and all tie rods too. I figure I should have fresh suspension bits since I’m disassembling the front suspension. I also bought dual axis alignment bushings to make sure the alignment shop can align the truck properly after I’m done with the lift.
