The only limitation is the amount in your bank account.

I wonder about strength where you trimmed the upper a-arm mounts to clear the pro-comp upper control arm drops?? How does CST lower the upper control arms? that is why i went SFA....

Did the 12 in. require you to cut off your top bolt on your differential?? If so you made new a new bracket to adapt on the new lift.

He's going from the 6 to the 12.... No pro-comp does not cut the diff ear off and nor does CST

It can be done. I just went from a 6" CST to the 10-12" cognito. The only issue is the upper contral arm droup stop is no longer there.
