I'm curious why you wouldn't want to go longer. Has anyone tried 1" or longer?
I have a ton of pipe (Stainless).

BTW: after reading several threads on this forum I removed my swaybar (Zip tied it out of the way). It was raining so I haven't tried it out.

I don't think you can go much longer because you can only compress the spring and spacer so much before it starts to cut into shock travel

I still wanna go 7/8" or 1".
Can you gain a little by adding similar spacers to the rear?

I have run 1inch aluminum spacers for 1 year...At first I did front and back,Shortly after I removed the rears because 1inch was too much.The spacers gave me room to run my 28s,but the ride is no better......I will be getting fox shocks for the ride and the ground clearence

In what way was 1" too much? I'm just trying to understand what's going to happen.

What size tire can you run after a spacer lift? Is it possible to clear 30s?
