FYSA:
By adding things like longer shocks or coil spacers, you will bottom out even sooner b/c you have already maxed almost 2/3rds of your downward travel by simply raising your vehicle.
My 2 inch shock lift bottoms out my front UCA on my spring. That means it does so FOR EVERYONE lifted past a certain point (w/o aftermarket UCAs)
I can assure you, it does not take much to lift a wheel if you go off-road (ask me how I know) unless flat/beach/gravel/sand/snow road stuff and there are no undulations or ruts and you don't drive fast over bigger bumps.
Further, if your UCA gently hits your coil--which for most people here if they droop--it will damage nothing unless somehow it gets caught and even then probably will pop out easily.
Just go into it with full knowledge.
What this guy is doing is not even remotely excessive, andi f this was our trucks (w/o aftermarket UCA) you will be hitting your coil spring at max droop (as seen here) because droop is increased with certain lifts.
Finally got a chance to take the Expedition offroad, and I was quite impressed!Engine Adventures strives to explore and test the AWD and 4WD systems of all c...
