    ^ Yup.



    and either trim the rear bumpstops or remove them.

    and then a proper c-notch

    I pulled my middle and put in a 3" block and it set the axle on the rubber bump stops. I don't know what that gives me since I didn't measure before. my guess is 5" combined.

    I think its like 4" combined. You only get like 1" when you pull middle. You also lose some carrying capacity when you pull leaf.

    Anyone ever relocate the front shocks? I heard if you do that you can go lower.
