3/4" outside of strut front spacer question

[Beamer]

I have spent many hours reading through these threads and I am trying to figure out if I can add 3/4" of UHMW on top of my RC 2" lift. This would go where Mark's 1/2" spacer goes. I still have my stock 83 springs in and don't plan on going with stiffer springs as I like the ride and don't have any additional weight in the front. I also have my front sway bar still connected and have not flipped my UCA's. This is my daily driver and the offroading I do is mainly plowed farm fields when hunting and driving on the beach when fishing so ride height is more important than articulation for me. Thoughts?

I have the RC lift with Mark's top spacer also.
I needed longer bolts and had to put the bolts in from the top with Mark's spacer.
UHMW should work, I remember some of the guys (Fishsticks maybe?) using it before.
I think they key is how much you lift before you start getting binding at full droop.

Unhook one side of your swaybar, lift the front end off the ground. Now loosen your two top mount nuts 3/4", so there's a 3/4" gap between the shock mounting bucket and your lift spacer. Make sure your wheel still turns freely. If your wheel still turns freely, then that size spacer shouldn't negatively affect your CVs.

If you haven't flipped your UCAs, do that too.

I have read that thread, but I assume you have removed your front sway bar and I know you have flipped your UCA's, both of which I have not done. I was wondering if I could add the 3/4" spacer and still be ok since I still have my front sway bar connected. I am looking for max ride height.

Is flipping the UCA's almost standard procedure?

Thanks, That is what I was wondering. I will flip my UCA's as I know the upper ball joints will be stressed if I add those spacers. I need to raise the front some more as I have Z71 springs and Skyjacker N8030 shocks on their way...

I added Mark's top spacer to my RC lift and after flipping the UCA the ball joint has a really good angle now. The alignment also went well for toe and camber. Caster is still a little off but that shouldn't affect tire wear.
