    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    3" lift with stock upper control arms sucks all of your down travel up. Replacing the upper control arm to a uniball like a light racing, total chaos, Icon tube/billet, etc. gives you "an extra inch" of down travel which helps keep that 3" high ride a bit smoother.

    Not big on any spacer if you want 3 inches up front get OME 887's for the full 3 inches

    As said above, not at all.

    If I could do mine again I'd go with Camburg as I like the 1.25" uniball upper arm for strength. But I have not been disappointed by the performance of my Icon tube upper arms with a 1" ball. They very likely can take every second of punishment I've given them and A LOT more.

    I think any 1" uniball upper arm would be good for you, OP.
