Default Anyone running limiting straps?

Just placed an order for a rk 5.5 xfactor long arm, shocks, drive shafts, air bumps, and the terraflex exhaust mod piece, I was reading that they recommend that you run limiting straps and all the guys i go wheelin with have them on there big built out buggys but i personally have never seen anyone to this day in real life have limiting straps on their jk. I know that terraflex makes some but.....
Thanks Mike

Most people don't run them because they have no idea or concern for bottoming out their shocks. They are absolutely an investment that you should look into. It'll keep your from overextending your shocks as well as keep your springs from falling out if they are the correct length.

have to run them on my long arm TJ or the spings will fall out and then pull the shocks out of the mounts. if you have high quality suspension set up right its not going to bind before you have other issues, thats when the straps come into play
