    Front Bump Stop Extensions and Rancho RS5000X Shocks

    Touché... I’m installing sway bar disconnects as well so will definitely cycle without links affixed. Thanks

    Front Bump Stop Extensions and Rancho RS5000X Shocks

    Good to know... I hadn’t thought to check clearance without the jounces. Thanks

    Front Bump Stop Extensions and Rancho RS5000X Shocks

    What spring lift height are you running? You mention without jounces, did you remove them permanently or just while cycling the suspension to determine how much bump stop to add?

    Front Bump Stop Extensions and Rancho RS5000X Shocks

    Makes good sense, thanks. Looks like it’s time to start tearing everything down, cycle the suspension and do the math. Better to do it right the first time 😃

    Front Bump Stop Extensions and Rancho RS5000X Shocks

    Thanks for the quick reply. No worries about expense or drilling. Seems pretty simple once the springs are removed. I guess my brain is having a hard time processing how I would gain extra up travel with the taller springs and longer shocks if it’s being offset by adding extenders or should I...

    2-2.5 Lift: Rancho, OME, or something else?

    Yes, plus a couple kids much of the time when we take the TJ. Have also been thinking about a Smittybilt roof rack system that will add another 150 pounds

    2-2.5 Lift: Rancho, OME, or something else?

    I am looking to add 2” to my extremely stock 4.0l hardtop TJ. I have been thinking about OME with Rancho RS5000X shocks. Any opinions on the heavy duty vs light duty OME springs? I prefer a firm ride but don’t want to end up with a bouncy ride when I take the hardtop off in the summer. Since I...
