So I was talking to my Honda dealer about lifts and stuff. And he told me something I had never thought about.

He said many people are getting the C-fab lift because of it offsets the front 2in and the High Lifter only does a 1 1/2in but because they don't want the 3in lift they are just using the stock upper a-arms also that lets them not worry about adding bump stops. So the only thing you would change is the lower front. He was saying they add portals after. The point of all this is to get the biggest tire and not increase the axle angle.

Just thought it was cool idea.

I’m confused how this would work... your knuckle would run backwards at the cop creating a lot of caster. You would be steering up into the air... at least that’s how my little brain sees it.

I see your point. It is at the shop getting the gear reduction so when I go to get it I will ask him about it.

How do the stock uppers and offset lowers work, that’d really mess with suspension geometry

OK, so I call Cory today he owns C-fab.

He told me this was possible.

The guy that told me this doesn't do the work that god. He just works their and does the ordering.

I will leave up for a day so the people that asked can read it then I will delete.
