    So far: SSO Rock Sliders , Bilstien 6112 Ft , OME Rear Shocks & Springs LED interior lights, Skids : Engine, Transfer case, Transmission.
    Question for for lift experts and /or personal experience .
    I installed Bilstein 6112 max height 3" in front and OME shocks and 2" lift springs in the rear. Also installed SPC UAC's at the same time. My 2012 Trail has KDSS.
    Question is do I need to install diff drop & sway bar drop? These seem counter effective
    clearance wise. but the CV angles have increased Also what about the drive shaft I noticed the spline at the transfer case was showing some clean surface indicating it was extended out more then before is this anything that should be addressed?
    Thanks

    2” lift Bilstein 6112 w/600 lb coils front, 1.5” lift Eibach T13 coils rear, Bilstein 5100 rear shocks, TRD skidplate, TRD stainless catback w/black TRD side exhaust, TRD shifter handle, Weathertech bug deflector, 20% tint front, LED door bulbs, 285/70/17 Falken WP AT3, Energy Suspension front bumpstops, SSO Slimline Bumper w/ Badland Shackles, Durobumps 4.25” rear
    at 3” in front you may need diff drop kit. See what that does ti help with cv angles a d possible driveshaft spline exposure. Im not sure what to do about the driveshaft issue if it doesnt.

    with a KDSS system i dont think you can drop the sway bar.
