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

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. |

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? |

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. |

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