you can use the last two holes...i used the bottom hole for max lift.

Take that sway bar off and it flexes just fine...(negative pass side arm, drooped driver side arm)

my bars are sagged i thoguht keys would be a cheaper solution but at 55 bucks a pop id rather buy bars than get keys.

i wheel my truck and its my DD i cant go cheap on mods.. i know i know i have a 3" bl but its so i can get 33's, 33's = more clearence, superlift plus 33's = waste of money, rcd ftw but no $$. plus RCD blus BL is too big for what i want right now.
that made no sense, learn how to structure a coherent sentence before you post. superlift is not a waste of money, lol
