I'll be installing my JBA 2.5 Silver lift on Saturday and can't seem to find any info on whether or not I can do a clevis lift too. I do not want to end up with the forward rake. I realize the JBA is adjustable so I'd be able to get a level rake but I want to get the most lift I can from the adjust-a-struts and still end up level.
So, does has anyone have a JBA 2.5 installed with a few conduit nuts?

I don't see any reasonwhy you would need to. I think you get the same Adjust A Struts as the 4" lift. I'm at around 4" lift and can still go up on the struts. It looks like I could get at least another 4" of lift (8" total) if I adjusted the strut all the way down to maximum (I'm about halfway down now). Now If only the IFS components would allow for it :twisted: .

The JBA adjust a strut replaces the stock clevis entirely, so there is no way to do a clevis lift with JBA.

Yes^^^^^^
plus you will be able to crank it up to sit level with the rear if you want or have the rake of stock
Install and then adjust after it settles in some
