Are you saying the coil will bind before we completely squish the bump stop with a 2" spacer kit? We don't drop the bump stops with a level kit. And IIRC, we only drop them half way with a 4" kit, maybe 2" further down.

In regards to the most popular kit around, by Ready Lift, they include a drop mount (2") for the bump stops, along with the 2" shock and sway bar mounts and brake line mount extensions. All the geometry stays the same, its just a 2" spacer donut on top of the coil. No gains in travel at all.

So what if I did the 2.5 coils with longer shocks. Could I omit the extended bumpstops and gain 2 inches of travel? Since I’m only running 35’s i feel I’d still have enough fender well clearance right?

My new 2017 leveled

My front is one inch lower than the rear. Got 2000 miles on it now and it performs perfect.
