Chevy 1500 Front Spring lift of 2.5"

Well I saw this thread over on RPS the other day and didn't see any thread like that on here. Maybe you guys have seen or heard of it, but I have not seen anything like this:

heres the post i read









basically the coil springs from a 99-06 chevy silverado 1500 will work in a 98-08 a arm ranger for 2.5" of front lift
Interesting. If it's that easy then it sounds like a good option. Just would need to figure out how much longer of a front shock you will need.
