Default Budget Boost

I recently bought a display model Teraflex 2.5 BB (still in box) for a good price, but then realized I have to spend another 150 or so on shocks - so now total price is not quite so good...
Is there a budget boost out there that I can use with my stock shocks?
Is there a height limit on stock shocks? (2007 Sahara 4D if it matters).

Any help is appreciated.

I have an 07 Sahara 4 door. I have the Skyjacker BB, from what I have read you can use it with the factory shocks but I went with the hydro shocks in a package deal. I do very little offroading but when I have I haven't had any problems.

Ya, I could sell you some cheap extensions. We bought the 2.5 budget boost and ended up getting the extensions but never used them since I already had a set of shocks. PM me if you are interested.

Great job.
All installs need instructions like these.

Craig.

Just add some TF shock adapters and get some used Rubi shocks.

x2. I would get the shock extensions... and use your current shocks until you can find someone that wants to give you some freebie rubicon pulloffs from a low mileage local Jeep.
