I got the OME Shocks fitted too... no need for brake line extensions and bump stops according to ARB... all flexes and rides really well (Bloody amazing compared to stock ones).

ARB use the shock as the bumpstop on OME suspension. They just design the shock too short deliberately. I suggest you get appropriate bump stops and brake line extensions. It just makes sure that you don't damage your car while in the bush.

Be aware that the CRD when brand new (both SWB and LWB) sits almost an inch lower than the Petrols (Rubicons do definitely sit a few mm higher I might add).

So would it be 3" taller than yours originally or 2" taller than the highest suspension package offered with the JK from the factory?
