Sus lift kit + 1" block lift

Hi Guys
I already have a 2 inches OME Suspension lift but I'd like an extra bit (as usual) and I'd like to know your comments on pros and mainly cons of adding a coil strut spacer at the front of 25mm and a block of same thickness on the rear, similar to what Snake is selling.

Many thanks

you will be swappiing downtravel for static lift. only issue will be you need extended breakline in the rear depending how your springs sit oh and you will probably get coil hat contact in the front again depending on your current springs. which you can either just live with or buy new uca's

Hi Thanks for the reply,
so what about if I jack the car up and then check the gap between coil hat and UCA to determine my maximum spacer?
Thank you

I have a 40mm Dobinsons lift in the front and I have added the 25mm snake racing spacers. And there was 5mm between the control arm and hat when the car what sitting still.. I jacked it and down measuring a few times and that 5mm gap equates to about 15mm of down travel, which is shit all. It would bang even going over speed bumps.

The answer: upper control arms from the USA, PRG is the best one going around (which is what I got) about $800 delivered from: www.performancelifts.com
Measuring down travel now it's a little better than std. And my car has 75mm lift at the front, plus 285 75 r16 fit with only the littlest trimming

Late ish reply but hope it helps! Ps the control arms are worth ever cent off road
