    This helps alot, thank you for doing that +1.

    From what i found real quick, it seems stock is 20.25' hib to fender. So you got rougly 1" and some change of lift with your current set up. So I think it is safe to say, 855's would give me 2" with bumper, skids and slider, maybe 2" and some change. Then 866's would definatly give me under 3".

    This sounding roughly accurate? :p

    886's, no top spacer. Dakars. Nitro 90000 in front and N182 in rear. About 90 lbs of winch and mount in front. Rides great - no vibes.

    Seems like it would be a little stiff up front. Do you have new UCA's as well?

    Thanks. The plastic has hit the rocks a few times, so eventually I'll be swapping out for some more clearance.

    I guess it's all a matter of opinion. It rides perfect to me. Not harsh at all on the street, and quite comfortable. It has a firm solid feel - and I ride with no sway bar, so it's preferred. I noticed no difference when I added the winch and mount weight, which I was happy for. I didn't want it to get softer.

    Running LR UCA's.
