    you can only adjust the shocks as long as you have good cv angles. after that your just going to do damage to the cv's.

    your prob gonna max out around 2-2.5" lift

    post up pics of your cv angle here so people can tell you if they good or not

    side note: what fabtech CO's you putting on? only the dirt logics are gonna be decent, the basic and performance CO's are crap and your not gonna like the ride quality they give
