Hi all - picking up a '24 Everglades soon and looking to do a 3" puck lift or general 3" lift.

I'm noticing that a lot of those products are not compatible with the HOSS 3.0 rack (yet)

Is there a similar lift kit that doesn't break the bank? (this will not see hardcore trails just minor dirt fun)

TIA.

Not sure I am following, they should ALL be compatible with the rack.... Is it possible that they are not compatible with the HOSS 3 Fox shocks??? But you would not have those with the Everglades I think. Coils, coil overs, pucks, etc. make no changes to the rack, tie rods, or knuckle. They will cause the tie rods to sit at much increased angle and you will need and alignment.

I believe the requirement is for the position sensitive FOX shocks on the Wildtraks. HOSS 3.0 rack and Bilsteins should allow same as HOSS 2.0 kits.

Be advised that a 3" Puck/Spacer lift is going to drastically change your steering geometry and put undo stress on the steering components and CVs. Yes, it can, and has been done...just be prepared for reduced service life of the components and/or failures.

Also, at 3" of lift you'll most likely need new UCA's to be able to bring back into alignment.

I'd highly recommend not doing a 3" spacer lift....
