    I have a stock 07 2wd. I’m wanting to get a more aggressive look and be able to go more places than a stock 2wd. Obviously looking to upgrade tires but not anything monstrous. Should I go with just a leveling kit, leveling kit and lift or just an offset lift kit? Would you guys recommend replacing anything besides the spacers?

    I have a trusted shop here in Phoenix and I rely on their expertise for my decisions. He asked me a lot of questions about where and what I wanted from my 4r. (2018 off-road) He warned me if I wanted to go off-road to stay away from spacer lifts and go with a quality suspension lift.

    As an aside we decided on a Fox, when all my parts are in ( other parts besides just the suspension) he will install them for me. I am absolutely a terrible mechanic and do not enjoy it at all, so I will work the overtime needed to pay him to do that for me. :)

    If you want it to be purely cosmetic, spacer lift. but take into consideration things like the age and condition of stock components as well as what you ultimately will use it for. its better to do it right once than spend more time, money, and effort because you changed suspension setups 3 times. ask me how i know...
