    No there isn't. Anything over 3-3.5 is bad for your CV axles and you'll bind them up and tear boots up.

    Only other option is a 6'' DB lift and those don't gain you anymore ground clearance then a 3'' lift will

    3'' lift and 33'' tires will take you to just about any place you want to go too. Or you can stuff 35s on a 3'' lift too with some major trimming.

    Hey this is for Blackdawg or anyone else who has hella lights. Simple question; are they worth it. I'm getting an elite front bumper and have small fog lights for it but am wondering if I should also get some bigger lights at some point. Some have said you can hardly tell a difference when you also use your high beams, true/false?

    Just calculated my gas mpg. Getting an even 19mpg (corrected too for the bigger tires) which consists of half city and half freeway driving.

    I'm anxious to see now what it does once I get my Magnaflow installed on Friday.

    I get between 18-19 but I drive a long way everytime I drive (approx 25 mi to work). If you take lots of short trips it may be affecting your mileage a lot
