    Have you looked at the Fox Shocks? I have been running the 11" travel remote reservoirs and I love them! The 12" version might be a good option for you. If I remember correctly they measure 19-31".

    Hey, would you mind posting up some details of your fox shocks in this thread: http://www.theultimatejeep.com/showt...ghlight=shocks

    Specifically interested in how the mounts worked out

    Sure!

    TrialByFire - How are the wires leading down to the rear diff at full drop? Did you have to extend them? I ask because when I extend mine out to 28" they are just about taunt.

    I personally would limit the flex right before anything touched or any lines got to tight.

    I checked your post and they look nice! I'll do some pricing and see how they compare to the Rancho's. I like the servicability aspect.

    I'm assuming you are referring to the ELSD wires which connect to the top of the diff. I didn't think to check, but in the first photo it appears that there won't be a problem (at least on a passenger-side drop. The SL kit includes a lot of drop brackets, like for the brake line for instance, and they may have one for the ELSD lines as well. The ABS sensor wires on the rear hub were very tight at full drop but I simply moved the rubber clamps where they attach to the brake line and all was good.

    Once I install the Rancho's (or Fox), I'll check again to see if the shock is the limiter. If not, I can pretty easily drop the brake lines another 1/2".

    Cool! I just didn't want you to rip it out if the axle dropped hard!
