Well, the old saying of buy once, cry once is definitely the truth. There's nothing wrong with my ride quality, but I want to replace these Rough Country springs with some springs that do not require any spacers in the rear for the truck to be level.

Stock, my measured height at the center of each fender was 39.5 - F3 and 39.0 - R.

I added the Rough Country 3.5" lift, and my measured height at each fender was 43.0 - F and 41.0 - R. That means the front was lifted 3.5" and the rear was lifted 2.0".

I installed 37" tires, and the measure height at each fender was 45.0 - F and 43.0 - R.

Then I added a Daystar .75" and Teraflex 1.5" spacer on each side in the rear, making the measured height at each fender 45.0 - F and 45.0 - R.

It's finally level, but I want it to be level without spacers. What springs do you guys recommend that will sit level, without any spacers? I don't mind if they actually raise the truck and inch more. I'm already planning on replacing the front driveshaft. I also don't mind if they are stiff, as I prefer a Heavy Duty stiff spring over springs that are softer.

I have the same lift, only parts from it remaining are the front springs and shock extensions. I swapped my rears out with the Rancho 3.5” x-lander springs. I have a 0.5” spacer up front and my rear sits higher than the front. Loaded down with camping gear it sits about level, never lower than the front.

Thanks! Looks great. I was disappointed with the rear springs on this lift.
Agreed. I couldn’t stand how low the rear sat from the first time I put it on the ground after installing the lift.

Did you ever figure it out?
Still running the same setup. Just passed 12k miles. My front driveshaft boot is throwing grease, so my next purchase will be the front driveshaft. Everything still rides great.
