I am currently running a BB 2" lift. I have installed a winch and warn bumper. Now it is a little nose heavy. any suggestions besides a suspension lift??

Add some weight to the back?

X2, I put a 1/4 ton trail rack & an air tank/bumper on the back that I made.

I'm in the same situation. I wouldn't add weight to the back just to level it out. Gas prices suck bad enough already. I'm going to swap out a set of OEM Springs (Front) out of a 97 Grand and add another stock coil spring isolators to the front. Should level it up and be a little stiffer for the weight of the engine and winch.

If you have a little cash hanging around adco adjustable spring mounts (I think thats what they are called), will let you fine tune your ride heights.

If you have no cash, I have seen peopel double up the isolaters above the spring for an extra 1/2 inch, some people will measure the height difference and just buy front springs to match that difference.

Go to the dealership and get a pair of coil spring isolators, same rubber thingy's that are currently on top of your front springs. They're stackable and work great to level a ride out. Cheap too.
