1" won't be an issue, any more and you will have several linkages to be concerned with, not just AHC. A few 100's on here have them.

12mm isn't even worth the trouble, in my opinion. 1" BL is tasteful and does the job. 2" might be more than most are looking for. :cheers:

Here are a couple links;

Trying to figure out if anyone has done a Blift with AHC, I am pretty confident that a 12mm would work but was wondering if a 1in blift would work? Im not sure if the hydraulic lines would be affected and need to be lengthened or not.
If anyone has done this or has any idea please let me know!

Thanks :D

FWIW, at 1" mine fan hit the shroud even after i trimmed a good bit. I could have trimmed more but i just lowered the radiator.

My steering shaft was also contacting my doug thorley headers.

The gap between my ARB front bumper and body was pretty significant. In order to raise it, you will have to cut part of the mounting bracket off because the bumper shell hits it other wise.

I lowered my body lift to 12mm and now no more issues.
 
Where does everyone get the 12mm body lift pucks?
 
I think Spressomon sells them both, at least he did. Complete with hardware and modified radiator brackets, with core...iirc...
 
I had a couple sheets of 1/2" (12mm) HDPE in black i bought to make skids out of a while ago. I just used this and a hole saw. Then you just need to buy the correct bolts from somewhere like boltdepot.com
 
I probably won't need it with the 275/70 r 18s once I rip the AHC out for Slee's 2.5 ome lift. Right now if my AHC isn't in H my tires rub when I turn or take any kind of bump.
