yes you can get them just about anywhere.i have 3 inches total of spacers all together i have 10 inches of lift and i never had any problems with them. its better to have bigger springs then spacers. but you will come out cheaper with the spacers. :cheers:

Blocks are an option but be careful because when I put some under my 96 Cherokee it made the rear sway bar mount rub the right rear tire. If you have aftermarket off-set rims then it's not a problem but if you don't then try to find an add-a-leaf or a shackle but go a touch less than the front to make it look right. If you have a 2" lift in the front you will only want a 1.5 to 1.75" lift in the rear. You can find most of these parts on ebay or get a hold of the guys at Roughcountry or Rubicon Express.

Also if you do add a lift be sure to have the foresight to maybe put in shims under the rear end and maybe even a transfer case drop to keep your driveline in lin to prevent added vibration. Again do a search on ebay or talk to the guys at Rubiconexpress, they were very helpful as to what the appropriate degree shim was for how many inches I lifted mine.
