I hate to say it Matt but maybe you should have not cut the spings and went from there. I could be totally misunderstanding all this though. Hope it all works out for you!

What gets me is that i found pictures of XK's running the OME MD and the front was lifted ~2". I didn't want to add 2 more inches on that.
Hopefully the little bit I cut off will work out. If i'm 1/2" lower than i want to be i can always throw some strut spacers in.
Well let me know cause I need front struts bad and want more lift at the same time

To add a positive spin to this thread, the additional weight of my rear bumper and leverage from the tire lowered my rear about 1/2". That adds some slack with where my front can end up to still be in my "happy" range. 1/2" higher than it is now would be nice, but a 1/2" lower isn't the end of the world either.
It looks like my guestimation of .25-.8" taller is pretty much spot on. Passenger side is still apart due to other issues, but I've gained about 1" as of now. I expect it to settle some so figure somewhere about 1/2" taller than my OME HD + strut spacer setup.
Looking forward to getting the other side done so I can test drive.
How was the install besides the problem with lca? What's the angle of cv looking like with extra 1"

I'll get pics once its all back together. The extra inch is too much but once it settles I think it'll be workable.
