I want to get a little more height out of my truck and I was thinking of setting the rear leaf springs on top of the axles and installing coil spacers up front. Is there anything else I'll need to look out for? I figure this will only add about 3" in the back and 2 1/2" in the front so I shouldn't need to extend anything or change the angle of the driveshaft but I've never lifted a 2WD and I want to make sure I don't miss anything. Thanks.

even with that you have to watch the pinion angle and make sure the the drive shaft won't slip

be careful with the brake lines don't stretch them out too tight
