I am looking at going coilovers for my JKU. I am not going extreme just equivalent to 1.5" to 2" of lift. The main reason I want coilovers is to fine tune the ride. I am going with tube fenders to build a LCG JKU. Ive been looking at weld-in mounts for the front and was wondering if a Fox 2.0 8.5" Travel Coilover would put me in the right range for that amount of lift. My driving ranges from highway to trails to high speed dirt roads. Not really looking for extreme flex since I am not planning to crawl this jeep. Thanks

 

Idk about theFox coilovers, but my opinion is go with Evo. They make a few different setups like their regular coilovers or the new bolt in ones that don't require welding. They can be set to give a lift between 2.5"(maybe...) all the way to 5" and the shocks are tuned to be excellent for highway and off roading without any adjustments right out of the box...

 

thanks for the props, but the bolt on coilovers will not go as low as he wants them

 

Not sure if any coilovers go that low. Also, I think it would be a waste of money. Many great regular systems that ride great out there, without spending $2500 or more.

 

if you want coilovers with that little lift your going to be looking at some custom work for that little amount of lift!

You can get tunable shocks just add them to the stock springs with some spacers.
