I didn't get burned about Jack... I said I was crazy and measured wrong. Happens with lack of sleep from kids... One day y'all will be there... I've lifted dozens of vehicles and never had to " flex" one to get compressed measurements.

Nope didn't say that. Just gets me when people on the Internet act like they the only ones with kids or problems. We all make mistakes. But yes I'll take the Jesus compliment, thanks.

He really didn't, he just called you out for using an excuse like you're the only one who has that problem.

Not saying I'm the only one, just tired of a lot of internet people acting like they never make a mistake, or know everything lately. Just seen a lot of it lately, not so much on here but the fb jeep stuff. Sorry if I snapped back. I had measured my bumpstop travel area wrong...

This only works if you have the correct length bumpstops. Just thought I'd throw that out there before someone doesn't think before doing the same thing and ****s up.

Yes I have extended bump stops front and rear, and on the rear the long spring plates to hit the bump stop giving me 4" of up travel in the back and 3 in the front. The front is where I messed up my measurement... I can add hockey pucks to either end to get a slightly longer shock if I need.
