Lift? again

If I was to make my own, or buy the coil spring spacers to lift the front of my truck 1" is there enough camber adjustment or would I have to put a 1" spacer at the end of the I-beams as well? If there is what about 1.5"?

They make special bushings to compensate for lift. I think I read on here that you cannot lift it over 2 inches though using just spacers and the bushings.

Go to www.partsamerica.com and punch in your truck. I found them there. They have a whole selection with different amount of degrees. I can't remember exactly which section I was in, but try "suspension".

How much degrees would I need for about 1.5" off lift? Would the 4wd ones work on my 2wd?
