I dont think the body roll is bad. It's significantly better than oem. Keep in mind, the springs on the 6112's are softer than the factory springs. I haven't driven the halos so I can speak to them.

This guy added 1/4" spacer for no rubbing

no spacers. I only rub on the front of the upper control arm. Nowhere else. Where are you rubbing at? Also the BFG side wall isnt as aggressive as some other tire brands.

I dont have any highway ramps where I live. However, I do not notice any additional body roll over the stock suspension.

Just got my levelling and block kit installed on Thursday.

Definitely not level with the block kit. Have the Readylift 2.25 in the front and 3" block in the rear, sitting on stock Raptor Wheels/tires. Waiting on my Fox 2.0 rear shocks to arrive but they are on back order so I won't see those until next month. Next up, rear fender liner! lol.

Eventually I will move to a coilover setup in the front to bring it up another 0.5" or so.

thanks Dave, I was trying to stay away from spacers but something that small probably wouldn't hurt or cause issues.

I rub on the frame mount of my rear passenger crash bar.

Theres a big controversy, but.... Loosen the crash bar, place a bottle Jack and a 2x4 or pipe and spread the bar back. Some used a wire pull and pulled it from the rear frame. Controversy was oh my gosh, how dumb to mess with crash bars! The answer to that is regular cab 150s and raptors have no crash bar at all..so oh my, they are unsafe...not

I'm not rubbing the crash bar but the mount it is bolted into on the frame. I may try spacers, new wheels, or just cut the mounts off the frame completely.
