Need additional 1/2" lift

Thanks Charlie, I was thinking I should delete the spacer and go to 2nd circlip setting. I dont know how to verify the spring model- I can't find a sticker on them, I am going by what I ordered.
Hub to fender measurements are:

FD= 21 3/4- 22"
FP= 22- 22 1/4"
RD= 24"
RP= 23 1/2"

Also, I picked up some SPC UCAs used from a member here so will get those installed when the spring settting gets changed.

What do the measurements indicate? I should have measured before lift but forgot.. Also, I have removed the receiver hitch and the spare tire. Spare is going back on soon, hitch is gone for good, until/if I get a rear bumper.

Thanks for the help!
20" is considered "stock" height when measuring lifts - though the actual OEM height varied through years, trim, options, etc. Basically, you have a 2" lift up front and 3.5-4" in the back.

If you go higher up front, you'll want/need those upper arms to get a decent alignment.

Here's a post on the OME 2890 springs from a while back:
New OME rear 3rd Gen spring design/ numbers?

Note my comment at the end... So, everything is where it is "supposed" to be, just not exactly what you expected based on what the vendor stated.

That all makes sense. So I'm thinking that deleting the spacer and going up a notch will give me roughly another 1/2" (lose 1/4" but gain about 3/4"). That's the plan and I am glad I got the UCAs. Thank you Charlie and all who commented!
