Lift suggestion
Roughly a year ago I went with the 2.5 RE lift...satisfied with the look and ride. Yesterday I jacked my truck up just out of curiosity about an inch higher...and I loved the look...I was thinking about adding hockey pucks. Will this make the ride worse? Has anyone seen this done? Input please!

People post about using hockey pucks as bumpstops, can't say that I've ever seen anyone talk about them for coils.
What parts came with your current lift?
Have you read through the Thoughts on Lifts stuck to the top of this modified area? You will probably want to address things like the lower caster, re-centering both axles, maybe brakelines and bumpstop. You'll even be high enough to start thinking about a draglink flip and driveshaft angles. So yeah, there could be more to it than just slapping spacers in.
