I was thinking of maybe putting 3/4" - one inch on, but dont know how it will effect things....

I was running 2" spacers up front before I installed the ACOS they did an ok job. I'm still running the 1 1/2 shackle out back. I'm about to swap those over to the IRO boomerang shackle though.

Where's mom and dads? When you find what's doing it, let me know.

If you have to cut it, that's a good enough excuse(for me)to pinch it haha. Why no cage cutting? Can always sleeve/weld it back together...
