Haha I was going to say! That's why I put that photo in the first post, so people know where to measure.

That's surprising, you're .4" above what you should be in the rear. Your springs haven't sagged much at all.

I'm trying to get my truck sit level again (w/o removing the D1 perch plates) and gain a little more height in the process.

Terrafirrma MD kit. D1 perch plates (net yield ~.75") and a set of spring isolators just on the tops of the rear springs (net yield ~.394" - assuming 10mm spacers). Total additional lift yield w/ D1 plates and isolators = 1.14" (nominal) + 2" MD springs = 3.14" (nominal). ARB bumper (no winch) on the front. Do you guys have isolators and count them when calculating lift height?

I'm thinking about adding 1" spacers to the rear and 1" spacers in the front.

okay so I am an even 22" in the rear and 22.5" in the front. I have a TF HD 3" lift with 1" spacers in the front. HD front and rear bumpers, TF diff guards, waiting on TF Sliders with nerf bars to arrive. I am adding a winch tomorrow so that should make me at 22" all around.

Gotta ask..
All that TF rock protection, and those wheels and tires?

I was waiting on that question primus. I just put new rubber on so I am building around the BBS rims for now. I plan on buying the TF 16" rims and a 32-33" tire very soon. I have spent a lot of money in the past 8 months on her. I do all the work myself but she has cost me much in 2012 not justing counting all the HD components I have added but as you know the costs to maintain as well. I am rebuilding and or fixing something almost weekly. Its very enjoyable though. I wish I could run the BBS rims because I love the look but they will just get destroyed and at $2000-$3000 a rim I would be a fool. I am happy with the clearance that I have gotten and look forward to many off road adventures.
