    correct. well 3 inch lift then 33s. so thats like... what 4.5 inches of total lift or something like that. if your really concerned about going over 3inches you would have to have a body lift (i wouldnt do it)

    what happens if you surpass the 2.5 in setting on the CO's?

    lets u adjust the collar on the coilover up or down without having to take it apart or off the truck. you wouldn't want to crank on it too much though.

    you can honestly go as high as you want, it's not recomended to go much higher if you want to get the best life out of your cv's though.
