hmm well I might up getting a 34ish....you said 2.5in level, I bought a 3in spacer but it has a 1in cutout for the spring, equaling 2in but there is no way you could do over 2in, my UCA hits the spring bucket like crazy

what Im saying with that is if you somehow really do have an extra half inch, I will be cutting a **** ton probably
