    So if I'm gonna get a canary, I may as well make it worth while. Lol

    Let's say I got 4" lift and get a sticker, do I just change the springs (say 2" springs) or will everything be out whack again.

    Yup if you have drop boxes they'll need to be removed prik of a job just to get a sticker taken off
    I isn't think Darren's lift stands out as being 4" as much as it does on my GQ

    Mainly I think to avoid body damage.
    I'm more than happy to be talked out of it.
    And to have 35's comfortably under me without worrying if it will hit anything guards etc with only a 2" lift.

    If it is only to avoid body damage, add some bar work, front and rear scrub rails, and if you in a rut off camber the bigger lifts will keel over and you will scrap higher up your panel.
    The back corners of my tray have been taken back to bare metal and on of the latches is bent from scraping up against the other side of ruts

    Yes very happy, if you are going to make something look tough, might aswell make it proper tough.

    You dont have rear scrub bars? Connects the sliders to the rear bar
