Default Fox shocks perfomance series and rough country discos

Couple of buddies and I finally put some sway bar discos on the front of Ron Burgundy and replaced the rear pro comp shocks with performance series 2.0 fox racing shocks. The shocks feel much more reactive and stable as the procomp a felt just ignorantly stuff. I've wheeled my JKU many times since april 2013 but never wanted to fool with disconnecting the sway bar so I didn't.

I needed the rear shocks bc the procomp a were fully extended after I put on 2" coil spacers on top of my 3.5 lift and had no up travel so the jk would bounce on the tires when driving over any bumps in the road.

My driveshafts are fine btw. No poor angles and wear... I'm pretty sure that only full 4"+ spring lifts have that issue due to the actual suspension flex... I still only have 3.5" of flex so everything clears perfectly.

Front fox resi shocks are on the way. 😁

Rough country sway bar disco and disco perch mount for wheeling clearance.

Totally worth drilling the holes instead of using zip ties.

What about the driving now? Any plans on doing a drag flip ?

I torn my front driveshaft boot on the exhaust at full bump and i only have a 2.5 X Factor lift so i know mine hits.

Drag link flip or high steer kit to come. Probably going with a synergy kit and Teraflex adjustable track bar.
