    Hey thanks for nothin gotoman !

    following up for posterities sake in case anyone finds theirselves in a similar situation , since all quicklift searches come up with hood strut stuff ...

    I went with .5 inch spacers on top of the Rancho quicklifts and everything worked out great, if anything I’m just a smidge higher in the front then I was because I have absolutely no tire rub anymore

    I have 2 inch blocks under the back and I’d been running stock blisteins with 3 inch spacers for the last 100,000 miles ..

    Dunno , did new axles , wheel bearings and lower ball joints while I was in there replacing the struts ( 200,000 mile reset ) On each side ...

    guess I didn’t pay attention to that ...
