Just wondering how your trucks are riding with 3.5" of lift on stock suspension?
I did Fox 2.0 Coilovers at 2.25" and it stiffened up the front quite a bit (to my liking), but I can't imagine going 3.5" on stock struts at that. The goemetry is just so off at that point.

I would think 3" with the Boss Coilovers would be about as high as I would go on stock LCA's. That's going off of what Stage 3 said about it.

Just wondering if you have any more pics Beerguy??

Would love to see how level the truck sits before I do this kit to my 2016 Screw.

Did mine a few weeks ago. The ride is great. The new control arms bring the geometry back in check. It's coming off next week for a 6". That's a factory 1" block in the rear and it still sits. 25 higher than the front

I dont think you'll be parking in that garage after the lift.

I went with 3.5 in the front and new 3" blocks in the rear, did it with a 2" puck and 1.5" Eibach adjustable strut with a new upper A arm, I did this so I would have the ability to change the height, the angles on the cv joints was pretty radical, the first snow I drove it in got stuck in my driveway, the massage center said 4x4 temporarily disabled, (overtemp) dropped the front down 1/2" and now the 4x4 works fine. It is amazing the change in the angle of the cv in just 1/2" lowering, I also dropped the rear to just 1" higher than stock, the first pic is 3.5", the second is 3".

Arsenal how is your ride with this set up? I was thinking along the same lines.
