The Alldogs spacer eraser kit got me wondering if it would be possible to upgrade the rear springs on the LC and keep the existing shocks for the time being. I'm guessing you'd lose some of the down travel, but not sure how much difference it's going to make over going with an IMS shock along with a new spring or just swapping to a C59-817V. That should get me a little bit less than 2" of lift given I'm carrying around 100lbs in the rear and regularly tow a trailer with about a 300lb tongue weight. Thinking if the Alldogs spring on the front shock gave me 1.5" the Dobinsons in the rear would keep a normal rake and let me sit level while towing.

Is this a terrible short-term idea?
(eventually I'll upgrade the shocks, but doing it in stages gets some lift faster)
