My Damage in Rio Puerco today :(
Had a great day wheeling with Jason and when we were headed back in this happened. Hit a little hill too fast and when I came down it it sheared off my teraflex shock adaptor and bent my stock rubi shock. Looks like I shoulda went with the shocks. 3 of my 4 stock rubi shocks are bad from wheeling and the drivers front is now not even on there any more 
...time to get some full length shocks right

oh man, i just saw this happen to cyruspura at the mega meet a few weeks back. shock adapters are an affordable way to keep your existing shocks but they do have their limitation - or, i should say, they'll push your factory shocks to the limit. push to far and something will give.
anyway, i'm sorry to see your carnage but glad to hear you're okay and that nothing else broke.

It sucked but was still a fun day for sure. Worst part was it happened when we were done and headed back out lol. I wish I would have just ordered the kit with the shocks to begin with instead of the adaptors. What shocks should I get if I plan on stepping up to the Teraflex 4" long arm kit. Do I order shocks for the lift I have now 2.5" spring or get longer that will work with the 4"?
