I've been running a 3in RC lift, full spring pack for almost 3yrs. Mine had a 2.5in, spacer and block lift when I bought and 31x10.5 with very little fender contact when turning while in reverse. After closer inspection, the rear blocks were cracked and the springs were almost flat! After the new lift, the front coils relaxed about an inch after a year and ended up with a little of a rake and added ACOS adjustable spacers to level it back out. Quite pricey compared to an add a spring lift, but in my experience you'll just be replacing later with a better lift. Also went with new control arms, dropped pitman arm and adjustable trackbar as well as having to extend the rear brakelines a bit. Just things to consider...also had to trim the inside of the flare on passenger side, minor rubbing after new tires. Also x2 on the wheel backspacing. But very happy and no more rubbing or being afraid to do a little puddle jumping! ~good luck
