AG- here's a list of the springs that TF sells, as you can see it's a +2" HD spring that nets a 3" lift, not sure why it's marketed like that but whatever. I was just trying to make a point that TF does not sell a marketed 3" lift.
Here's a quote from the website: TF027 Heavy load rear coil springs are designed to provide 2 inches of lift on heavily laden vehicles for commercial and expedition use. The TF027 fits the rear of Disco1, Disco2, Range Rover Classic, and Defender 90s carrying a constant load or additional equipment weighing more than 300kg.
Which is why you get more than 2" when not loaded down.
Eithhhherr wayyy haha,
The sliders weren't too much of a pain to install, just took a while. Essentially you need 5 things.
A lift, a corded/cordless drill that isn't too long in length, a pilot bit, and 2 "step" drill bits. Oh and beer of course!

Damn! Talk about a thread jack!
So, i decided to stay away from spacers and picked up (2) sets of 10mm isolators for the front springs from expedition exchange. I'm going to add the isolators a top and bottom of each front spring which will yield me apprx. .75" of lift. This should put me just about even w/ the rear. I'll post pics and measurements later.
