So the ride quality thread has gotten me thinking... I know I want to change my shocks. I know Fox 2.0's are probably not worth the effort unless I outboard the rear and get the shocks tuned. I suspect that most who outboard the rear also extend the front towers as well.
What I don't know is when all that is futile. I currently have 4" of lift. My humble understanding is that a 4" lift is necessary to get full articulation with 33" tires - but assume that is with stock travel. If I out boarded, would I need to add a body lift to get enough clearance to actually use the additional travel? Fox 2.0 RR shocks are expensive enough, plus coupled with the relocation cost - is it fairly insane to do if you don't gain travel? Do some people only outboard the rear and keep the front travel stock? Are body lifts and tummy tucks pretty much standard with outboarded Jeeps?
