no problem. with 2in of lift you will likely be limited to 10in travel shocks though, anything longer you the shock body will be too long. One the downfalls of sub-3in lift heights. You could relocate shock mount locations threw the body. Not a big deal, just a little fab. We had to do the same on Overeasy's Samurai to run 16in travel shocks.

Exactly. with short arms there is a limit. However like you said the only way is to build new front shock towers into the body. And it would take a good bit of inner body work.
So my goal is to keep the 10" of travel with the 36 irocs or boggers at 2" and short arms. It will be tough but with some work I can do it. And hopefully with keeping a base stock flare look.
This is more than enough flex for the terrain I run. Don't want any more really.
