Leveling kit and HBS spacer only questions

I number of months ago, I purchased the HBS spacers for my truck. I had also planned on purchasing some Bilstiens for all four corners. But after waiting for two months for my order I cancelled.

So now, I have the spacers, no shocks, no drop brackets, and little money.

Am I asking for problems if I just put in the spacers with my stock shocks and nothing to drop the sway bar as far as spacers or end links? The shocks are still stock after ~111K.

My concern is that I'm asking for problems without the shocks and dropping the swaybar. So, rather than spend the money on shocks and dropping the sway bar, I'd be money ahead selling the spacers and putting the money towards a full leveling kit from from Kore or Carli.

That will probably mean waiting a bit for the money. I'm not having any rubbing issues with my 295/75's but looking to remove the nose down look and improve the ride.

I ran like that for many many thousand miles. I did eventually add the new shocks, but never did drop the sway bar. My spacers have been on for more than 100,000 miles.
