BTW try and restrain yourself...I've noticed the JK becomes Very Very Fun on rough roads when you go from twin tubes to high pressure monotubes!

Yom, all meassured 2" bump stops in the rear 2 1/2" in the front compressed legnth should have about an inch clearance at full compression all round.
The old shock have almost done 90,000km's now and are starting to rust in the rear. was going to go for the OME Sport long but had an 1" to 1 1/2" to much droop.
I'm already at 3" up in the front and 2" in the rear, I will be adjusting this also to take into account the lean I now have to the right hand side (@ 1/2"). This will leave the front at 3 " and bring the rear up to 2 1/2" to take the rake in to account.
This will do two things: make it less likely to drop a rear spring and secondly make it easier for me when disconnecting the disco's LOL...
Thanks for the heads up.
