I assume the target is still 35" tires...Are you still talking 11-12" Shock travel once you find the right application?
3" IS LCOG in my opinion although I'll get bashed for saying so
Also, no mention of BL/MML, or is that "assumed"....so your still talking higher than 3" total if you include

Gerald,
We spoke on the phone Monday about this same topic and the information you just provided above has answered some questions that I had from speaking with other vendors.
I am looking forward to placing my order and getting this under my rig...also want the SYE kit we spoke about.
I'll be in touch soon to place my order.

So that's what has been keeping you busy @ Savvy? Sounds like a nice kit. Good luck with it.

Nice to see it formally announced Gerald. In talking to Bilstein, I believe their 4" shocks are just about the same collapsed length as the 3" shocks, but will add a bit of downtravel. That may be worth looking in to. I'm sure you'll come up with something good though.
Either way, I can't wait to place the order and get this under my LJ. This lift plus your UA and a set of 255/85s is going to be perfect.
Good luck with the install on the test mule. Can't wait to see the pictures.
Lee

Awesome news Gerald-its about time. I can now point folks in your direction for the 3" lift line many people are interested in around here. This will be a great setup indeed. I've been running the AEV/Nth progressive 3" springs for some time now after wearing out the OME HD/LJ stuff. Will be interesting to see how the 3" Savvy/Currie compares. Very interested to see what you do with the shocks-the Rancho 9000s are too long and require excessive bumpstop or other shock mounting mods to make them fit properly. A shorter body/long stroke would be great for the bolt-on crowd and fit a larger market I'm sure.
Again, Congrats. Very happy to see this.
Best of Luck,
Mike

I can't wait, you can go ahead and put me down for one as soon as it comes out, this is exactly what I've been trying to find/build myself for the past month. I am glad I held off and saw this, thank you Savvy for creating a Currie quality lift (if not higher quality) for guys like me who don't want to go all the way to 4 inches.

Put me down for a set of springs. Now ill need to get some aftermarket front fenders, I really like the nemesis hydras.
Glad to see this happening, we needed a better selection of 3 inch springs.

Nice, now I have a chance to pull off Currie springs, and a flat skid w/o going over 4" of total lift.
Edit: Unless Imped figures out how to go completely flat skid, and no body lift, without beating the hell out of the tranny tunnel to make it fit, first.
