Longest shocks on a 2" lift?
 

I have some shocks designed for a 2" lift by rancho suspension. Is there any way to safely fit a longer shock on or somehow milk for more flex? I already have disconnects up front and removed the rear sway.

i run 10" travels in front with 2.5" lift, forget what i run in back.

disconnect the shocks and do some flexing and measure the extended and collapsed lengths from mounting point to mounting point. just make sure your brakelines are long enough

I'll work on this after I get my high-lift. It'll make the flexing a little easier to undertake.

if you wanna get real fancy, you can relocate the shock mounts to the top of the axle tube. i've seen people do that to get an extra inch or two.

Occam's razor: The simplest solution is usually the best. I'm going to see about buying some longer shocks when I get some monies in my pocket.

just a suggestion.

I will take it into consideration. Fab work isn't exactly easy access or skill for me. Sad day.

haha yes me too. it's not a task i would personally want to take on by myself.

actually that will enable you to run shorter shocks

im running 8" 5150s out back with no issues. I dont see why you'd need a longer shock at 3" of lift.... unless your running coils or coilovers. Or doing JeepSpeed.

I want a longer shock for 2" of lift so I can get more flex.

just get BPEs, or measure your current shocks, then get one that is longer. BUT make sure its not too long compressed so you dont bottom them out.

Might do the BPE option, cheap and easy.
