Current setup
Zone 3” suspension lift that has sagged to 2.25” in front with winch/bumper
Rancho 5000X shocks
33” tires
Cycled front suspension today and I learned a lot but also have more questions than answers. with springs/bump stops removed I’m coming up with 3.5” uptravel limited by tire touching fender (0.75” left of shock travel) and 4.25” down travel limited by lower control arm touching axle side mount.
Question 1- If I add a 0.75” coil spacer (restoring my original 3” of sus lift) will that move my up travel to 4.25 and reduce my down travel to 3.5”?
Question 2- if I also add a body lift to get my fender out of way and bump stop appropriately, would the additional 0.5” of up travel leave me with a total of 4.75” up and 3.5” down?
Question 3- would those modifications improve or hurt suspension performance?
