If you have $$$ you can get some good coilover shocks like Sway-A-Ways, Camburg, Donahoes, etc. Spacers ride like ass.

i have the daystar spacer lift and all i can say is, you get what you pay for. The lift is only a couple hundred bucks so of course the ride isn't gonna be as good as a donahoe that costs over a grand. Am i totally happy with the way it rides now? Not really. Would I rather spend 1,000 bucks more for a ride that's just as good, if not better than the stock ride? Again my answer is no. Another thing to consider is if your street driving or offroading. If your not gonna off road then do you want to spend more on a suspension lift made for offroading or a spacer lift made more for street driving. It's all about how much money you have to throw around.

For the price and quality Toytec can be your answer. But like PB said depends on what you are willing to spend. I have the Toytec/OME setup and have been very happy with it.
