WOL have you ever though about lifting the body to give another inch of stuff? I don't know if you need any more lift per se but maybe you could split the difference with some coilover adjustments......

actually, i had a 1" body lift but have since removed it to give me a lower stance. currently, i have my jk set at where i want it to be and have yet to come into a situation where i felt that i needed more.

I certainly will not pretend to be an expert but if you could adjust your coils another inch and keep the Body lift it seems like you would effectively add another inch of stuff, whether you needed it or not.

There is know reason for use of a body lift with our EVO suspention for up to 42 inch tires.

yes
i'm not sure why i would need another inch of stuff when i can already do this...
as you can see, the body of my jk is totally level and i have all four on the floor. again, these are 40" tires you're looking at

Here are a few recent shots of us going through Doran Canyon's gate keeper. Mind you, we are running 40" tires and as you can see, the rocks are a bit bigger than them. And, as you can see, we are still all four on the floor....
BTW - i am running limiting straps front and rear to help prevent driveline bind and to keep the front shaft from making contact with the exhaust crossover.

Your JK is unreal. I love it. Someday I hope to have my JK the way I want it. I'd also like to have 40" tires with the lowest cog possible. I doubt I'll have a set-up as solid as your evo/king coilover system though. I need to make some money!
