I'm installing new springs on my TJ, and I have a question about how much shock shaft is ideal to expose. I went from a Rubicon Express spring to a John Currie spring. 4" lift for both.
I don't have previous measurements from the Rubicon Express springs.
I just put the TJ down on 4 wheels for the 1st time after the install to measure the ride height.
The rancho has 10" of shaft when fully extended. When the TJ is on 4 wheels, the front shock has 6 1/4" of showing.
What is the ideal amount? I would imagine about 5", but I'm not sure.
