You will have to trim. Spacers... I dont think so, depends on the rims I think.

If so, then I am really going to reconsider my route for the lift. BTW I'm planning on running 30 or 31x10.50's After lift is installed. I need some help determining if his answer is correct, and an overall opinion of my lift set-up. Thanks!
i installed a 3" from rc and jks quick discos. theiir discos wont fit at three inches but the jks ones will. on a side note im not really all that pleased with mine, at least the front upgrades. Im allready pricing new coils. the rear packs i have no complaints about. you will need to adjust some stuff to fit the 31's on three inches, i did

When you spend(aka waste) enough time on CF and the internet doing research, finding stuff like that becomes wayyy easier.

So Im thinking about getting a sye kit. Im only at three inches of lift, but that wont be there for long. Is it going to hurt anything to have it on there before I get up to 4.5? Also what else do I need to get along with a sye kit? How hard are they to install?

Nevermind... new CV driveshaft right?

Ok so what about a transfer case drop kit. Disadvantages? Do you have to have a crossmember or is that just a clearance thing? A drop kit would be a temp fix for the sye problem right?
