Ride height adjustable struts
#3
So for example, I have a 6" zone lift and some worn out front struts. I could replace them with adjustable struts to add another 2"? And then just add an add-a-leaf in the rear for a total of 8" lift? I was under the impression from a friend of mine that I couldn't use that method to get an extra 2" of lift

You can most certainly do that. However take into consideration that your UCA angles are going to be rather harsh, and with the bigger tires there will be added stress on them. If you do that I'd recommend some uni ball UCA's. But the cost of them plus the cost of adjustable struts makes the whole idea kind of unjustifiable to me. I've considered doing the same thing with my BDS 6" lift, because it retains factory angles and has a bit of a rake to it. I was going to add adjustable struts to the front to level the look, however I can't reason with spending that much money to do so and put all that extra stress on my UCA's. I'll live with the rake.

I did see where the pro comp adjustable front shocks recommended running the shocks at stock height if you had a lift kit, so I guess that kind of sums it up. Probably feasible, just not a good idea.
