You don't need anymore lift. Just add tire, trim, and bumpstop. Judging from that video, it looks like you could use some stiffer shocks.

Is that Heather from MI?!

How'd you bend your bumper on that??
What size tires are you looking to move up to?

Yup that's heather, nice person we enjoy her company,

Looking to go a little taller then the 245/75/16 I have but not wider

Maybe d2 factory size? That's what like 265 something?

At that drop off the corner of the bumper caught that big *** root and twisted it, another guy in front of me in a black d2 ( not in the video) caught his same spot and twisted his same way

Benot bumper back , plan to cut the ends narrower and cut the bottoms off the back of the quarters below the molding
