    Why are people stacking lifts? Especially with coilovers

    Icon/All Pro.....chopped for 35's
    Most do it to reduce the preload on the coilovers and make for a better ride.....or to get more than 3" of lift. I wouldn't do it personally as they can be adjusted easily for the taco lean.

    Thought I saw someone post they need to have at minimum 1" preload (1/2" thread) on the springs and not to run them at 0 but not sure why?

    If I converted these to extended how much thread would be showing to get three inches of lift.

    Extended gives you 1" of more droop I believe. I wouldn't go over 3" with them

    No. You should have more. I'm saying the extended travel COs have an extra inch of down travel.
