save yourself some money and hassle with the install of that and PM Boiler to order a 3/8" strut shim.

So you would need 4 shims each side to equal 1.5 lift of the Daystar? What is the cost of 8 shims? Is it ok to put that many on there?

No just one pair of strut shims is needed to be level. If you put that daystar spacer in the front it would set higher in the front then the rear.

If you install this in the front, you will also need to install a couple rear spring isolator pads in the rear to make it level. These install IN the front spring booty'y. You will effectively being adding a 1.5" lift to the front and nothing in the rear.

NO! You can only install 1 set of these shims. These shims go on top of the spring pack between the spring and the body. There is only enough threads on the top of the spring pack to add one set ( 1 on each side ) or you won't have any threads going through to put the nuts on top.

Icecold: if you are only looking to remove the slight front rake that the stock libby has, 1 set of shims should make you level.

And if boiler's shim still doesn't bring you level ( mucho sagged front springs) you can add couple conduit nuts under the front clevis to bring up slightly also.
