Question Fox Shocks?

I have a '09 JK with a 2.5" lift. I'm looking at getting the fox 2"-4" lift shocks.. Is this all I need to order? or do i need something else?

That's what I have on my RK 2.5 Max Travel kit. They work well. Of course, we could get into that recurring discussion of bumpstops and limiting straps. You may already have those??? You should probably retest your limits after you install the new shocks.

I'd look up the actual measurements on these shocks to see if they mesh with RKs suggestions.

That's how I got mine. You can call RK yourself to be sure, but mine were recommended for the 2.5 Max Travel.

Did you buy the same part numbers as the OP or did rock krawler tell you specifically what fox part numbers to buy? I'm looking at the 2.5 flex system.
