Idk. I was hoping to get some insight on that. its my daily driver but i want height just not too much where its gonna cost a fortune and im gonna have a lot of repairs due to damaged or worn out parts and without having to change a lot. like drivetrain and control arms and such.

Then I would say either put together a 3" lift, which you have many options. Or buy a 2" BB like described before. You could also do some fender trimming. I cleared 31's stock so 2-3" will open up your options substantially, with trimming.

Spacers will be fine up front but the rear is probably sagging already. This link may help you a bit if your on a tight budget.

I've seen different kind of spacers, ones that go in between the coils some that go under thhe coils. What would be better? And as for the rear are u suggesting I replace the rear end so to speak? Due to the sagging? And what would be a good height to go? I don't want to loose incredible amout of gas mileage?

Actually, lifting it probably affects the aerodynamics in some way, so it probably does mess with your fuel economy but it's so minuscule it's probably not even measurable...
