    So unless I'm confused, which is totally possible, you installed a 3" spacer on top of suspension lift?

    Did quite number of things today.

    1. Wipe down the interior before day trip to Nashvegas. Also vacuumed.
    2. Added a rear ladder. Bought used from FB market. Quick and easy install. I think it's a CTH version.
    3. Added Agency6 bronze handles to roof rack. Had black ones, but these match the rims.
    4. Added a rear hitchhiker to ladder.

    I would like to believe this, but I think I will need to see it for myself. And I would be willing to do the recon for everyone else, pictures, a test drive, some "light" off-roading , and then I could report my findings here. I would be willing to pay for gas and beer since I will be driving your rig.

    Yeah it’s a 1-1/4" drivers front spacer and a 3/4" passenger front spacer and is the best option for a mild lift and the needed front end lean correction & gives me a 3” overall lift.

    Changed oil and filter at 5250 miles interval. OEM filter, but swapped the oil to Valvoline Max Life this time from the usual Mobil 1 high mileage I have been using for last 80000 miles. Greasing the slip yoke and spider joints next, maybe next week.

    Is it lifted or leveled? You're running 1.5" spacers as well? KSP? How have they held up?

    Apex Overland has a very similar design and a KDSS option as well.

    Currently sold out but I'm sure you can check with them for next availability...
    Also pricier, but that's what you get with your fancy schmancy suspension. :rolleyes:
