    Lift. Full 3"?

    But while on the topic...I would like 275/70/17's but I really want dura trac's and they don't make them that size. I'm keeping the steelie's I have and putting 265/75's for winter.

    2 3/4 OME Suspension Lift with 885, with trim packer, 1/4" top plate spacer, swaybar relo bracket. Dakar leaf pack with 3rd leaf removed. 285/70/17" BFG AT. XD Wheels with 4.5 BS, Best Top Soft Top, Undercover winch mount with Warn 8k winch (with synthetic line), Pioneer touchscreen double din head unit. 4X innovations welded sliders. roof mounted DVD system.ATO dual battery tray with dual yellow tops. Rugged ridge isolator kit.
    I did this per OZ-Ts suggestion and it is perfect! I sit level (with 3rd leaf removed from the pack) and a great ride. The 1/2 spacer is too much.

    I did a search and came up with 2 threads and I think it will work but...looky here
    Can I use napa part# 904900 so I don't have to take apart my existing set up. I'm supposed to get my ome coils/sport shocks assembled today.
    I sent 'thatSchusterguy' a pm. It looks like it worked for him after he removed a rubber gasket
