How much height could one get in the front with OME HD springs, OME front strut and maybe daystar strut plate?

My guess would be 3 to 3.5"

thats a little too much, let me rephrase the question, I want to get true 2.5 (maybe a bit higher) lift after all the settling is done, so what do I need? I already have OME strut.

ome hd's and three conduit washers on each side for clevis lift.

that'll give you 2.5"

is that true 2.5"? Also how much lift does the daystar strut plate give? I really want to reserver the clevis lift in case I need to add more lift to something else. for example if I got HD springs and daystar strut plates and not got enough lift i would do a clevis lift. But sounds like strut plate and HD springs will be too much. Ideas?

The OME H.D. and 3/8" clevis should net you right around 2.5" with a stock bumper. Reports of the OME H.D. are about 2" and the 3/8'' clevis will add 3/4"+.

As I understand it, the Daystar strutplate design is only used in cojunction with the 3/4" poly spacer and OME H.D. in order to compress the strut/spring assembly, as is the 2.5 Daystar spacer lift. In your case it's not needed, and I'm not sure if it even adds any height.

Ok I understand, so I guess like jasonk said I need 3 clevis rings to get that extra 3/8", right?

Three 1/8'' conduit nuts equal 3/8", that will result 3/4"+ in lift.
