Hi everyone! I just got done installing an RD lift on my 07' Rincon. I was wondering if anyone else was running this lift with Highlifter Springs and if they've run into any problems with that combination? My springs seem really close to the A-Arms in the rear...Is anyone else experiencing this?

The springs will be close even the stock ones with the RD lift. I've heard some guys having trouble running the HL springs and the lift so you might want to watch those cvs.

The CV angles do worry me, so I'll probably put the stock springs back on. Thanks for the reply.

I would only run the stockers with the Rubberdown lift. I've heard of several having problems with both the RD lift and HL springs. Most have had popping in their CV joints due to the extreme angle.

The stockers are back on and they look a little better. Also, installed dual 1.5 snorkels. Can't wait to try them out.

Do I need to take off the HL springs that I just put on to run a 3" RD lift?

I would... The angle created with any 3 inch lift is pretty intense.. Then add some aftermarket springs and your asking for trouble... In My Opinion........

Honestly, most guys that had both, like the ride better with just my lift kit, they all took the springs off and like it better....thats from what I've read anyways...and yes, 2-1/2" is closer to the lift height.
