While doing some research on setting bump stops and choosing shocks, I think I over confused myself. I have every intention of cycling my suspension in order to do things right but pardon my ignorance in the following question.
I am trying to get a list of everything to order so I can do the whole 4" lift at once. What I think I'm hearing in all these threads is that you have to have certain measurements before ordering but how do I get those measurements without the new setup in place.
For instance:
1. How do I measure for a new driveshaft for when I do an SYE until I have the lift installed? Or do I just wait to order that and not be able to drive the Jeep until it arrives?
2. How do I order shocks that are the right length until I have the new lift components installed? Or is this one of those measurements that are the same no matter the lift? i.e. your current setup translates to the new setup?
I am installing the 4" Currie lift and already have the 1.25" body lift. I plan to go with Rancho RS9000XL shocks but Idk what length to order. I hate posting something that has probably been answered but I've dug through the internet for hours it feels like and I'm just confusing myself on when to take the needed measurements (i.e. before or after the new setup). Trying to do things right the first time and I apologize to those who have probably answered this a thousand times.
