And yes it catches but only a tiny bit at the top of just the rear arches, gunna take an inch of the whole arch soon all 4.


my eyes are still ok :woohoo: ... i can still make a 1" difference just seeing the pics :whistle:

what's my point: because of this kind of info people may get it wrong and spend in vain on big tires.
so... you have a 3"SL - case closed! ;)

Could just be that your original springs have sagged. The real way to test is measuring the height of the car before and after, not the spring lengths.

Yes on a 3" lift and yes on 2" lift if you remove the ARB ;)

Think your ok on a 2" lift with the ARB still attached, I would get extended lines anyway just to be safe.
