3 more inches?

I would do shackle relocation brackets for 1"

The other 2" I would recommend in shackle length or baster pack. Or a combination of the two.

To get 3 inches of lit out of shackles alone your looking at a 9-10" long shackle eye to eye. 3" lift is 6" longer then they are now, which will also cause some pinion angle issues by pushing you pinion up quite a bit.

I was going to go wheeling today in the green jeep and test the long arms, but my co workers flaked out. Also I'm sure it would have been cold with the back chopped off.

You rreally want iit to come up 3 inches? I think probably a 2 inch shackle would satisfy your needs

You can get springs re-arched. Maybe that'd help?
