Man, if you can drop $3000 a month into your jk, I'd get the evo front coilovers and let them set in a box until the next month instead of dropping serious coin on just shocks.

 

the stock springs and the shocks should work well together for me for a while.

 

i can keep it at 3" and build the suspension in stages instead of jumping right into EVO coil overs and spending a bunch of money on other parts like DS's, regear, and other equipment

i want to get a pedestrian guard and winch too

 

if you get a 3" lift, for example, you may net over 3.5"-5" of actual lift. at that point, your shocks may not work. most JK lifts are giving well over their rated height.

 

its a TF 2.5" BB on stock 2 dr

 

the shock spec recommended for for the TF BB 2.5 is

front - 26.89 extended - 16.5 collapsed
rear - 28.09 extended - 17.25 collapsed

I wonder what the King's are

 

right and the point that i and others was trying to make is that those will work with a BB, but maybe not when you decide to upgrade in the near future. if you bought expensive shocks now, its like throwing money away. but its your jeep and your $$

 

the shock options for the Kings are 0-3" and 4-7" so even if the boost brought me over 3 but under 4 I should be ok. Slowly adding weight as I plan to will squish me down a bit. I'm just thinking which 2.5" TF lift to use with the King shocks and 35's. The one 2.5" kit keeps you at that height and the other averages 3" for 2 dr but could go higer on light stock JK that I 'll have for a short while before adding weight.

some desert runing could be a possibility in Arizona when I make it out there

 

I put a hold on the King Shocks. Thanks a lot. But I put in new seats and ordered a front bumper

I think I want to get the bread together to put in the EVO coils front and rear with King's or the front and rear double throwdown.

While i work on the money for that:

I would like to get the 35's and sidebiters on there. So, should i just put rusty's or TF 2" spacers in front and rear to hold me over til i get the EVO suspension?
