    Rocky road outfitters budget lift

    It is normal for it to bind up when installing the top spacer style lift as the suspension isn't designed to have that much down travel. You can add a bit of spacer lift (about 1/2") with a lifted spring and not bind up the cv.

    Installed my logging road radio yesterday - tucked it away in the center console - didn't want it just sitting on the console next to the shifter and it wouldn't fit in the little cubby under the heater controls.
