The front shocks are about midpoint on the adjustment, so they can still go up about 2". I think that is a little to low and I am looking for a solution.
Yes, the 10" springs helped a lot. Gave me the added ride height I was looking for and still some room for further adjustment.

Thanks for the info. I have made up some flat bar brackets to extend the mounting location on the frame down 1.5". If that doesn't work I will try the longer springs.
