4.5 lift from a 3 ????
Hey so I got a 3in series 2 kit from rough country on 31s thought is be happy with the height but I'm not lol. So I wanna do alil boost to get 4.5 I'm thinking shackles and a puck up front , would I need new shocks to compensate for that extra in. ?
Thanks for the help :-)

New shocks are recommended. I am not 100% sure, but i would say, technically, no.
Seeing how... with stock shocks you have a margin of -2/+2 on stock shocks. after that it is best advised to get new shocks. With lift shocks, I am not entirely sure.

lower and upper adj control arms, adj tb, longer brake lines, longer shocks, will want to do an sye / drive shaft, oa a t case drop if budget is tight for a temp band aid, 2" shackle as to new packs (less arc is better flex), if do a puck up front will be a softer spring that if went and got 4.5" coils, new sway bar connects unless your at 3" adjust up to 4.5"
do you have any recovery options, armor, locker that kinda stuff
