Springs or no springs

[Mirage]

Ok so I've compiled a list of parts for my lift. I've got marks 2.5lift/level kit. 265/7017 Druatracs. Wheel spacers,
Z71 rear springs/skyjacker rear shocks. Stock front struts with 87 front springs on order.

Problem is the 87 front springs are on back order from my local dealer and I really want the lift done. Should I just go with what I have and do the front springs later or ditch the rear springs too for the time being. I'm worried about the rear sitting too high and not looking right.

Thoughts? Opinions?

I would do it. You can leave marks spacer out of rear and see how just z71 looks.

You will be compressing the front twice, but that is not a big issue to me. I think the Moog 114 are pretty readily available and similar if you want to get something totally done quicker.

I can get moogs locally but almost 2x more coin. Not sure why. Would the moogs and the Z71 with rear spacer even out the ride height?

so are you asking if you should install the front lift with your stock springs? What stock fronts do you have? If you're not happy with the stock front springs, i dont recommend installing until you have the parts to do it right!

The rear is easy enough to do several times, but the front is a bit more involved just because of spring compressing. I dont know about you, but I compress springs as seldom as possible, as it's just a ticking time bomb.

Give these guys a call they might have them is stock.
