Hi Rey,

I was thinking of no more than 1" without lowering the lower A-arms and raising the upper ball joint. I think Dave's 4" lift kit relocates the strut down about 1 1/8" and there is a slight rub on th CV boot at full droop.

I think that I can make these struts up to about 4" longer than stock but the stroke will be only about 1/2" longer than stock.

Personally, I prefer as little lift as possable for the tires so I will probably end up with 3" in the front and the rear air adjustable from 2" to 6"...........
...........oh,yea, and an electric cooling fan. (obligatory on topic content <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />)
