Default Lift Ordered

Finally ordered my lift and other things I think I needed last night. Here is what I have on the way:

RK 2.5" Flex Kit
RK Front and Rear 3" Bumps
Fox IFP Shocks (4-6" Lift)
TeraFlex Front lower spring retainers
TeraFlex Rear upper and lower spring retainers
RK Rear Coil Correction Wedges
Nemesis Factory Dana 30/44 Front Lower Shock Mount
Adam's 1310 DS with differential pinion yoke and transfercase pinion yoke

I think this should set me up pretty good. I am planning on going with 35's on stock Rubi rims. I already have the spidertrax 1.5" spacers. Is there anything anyone thinks I might be missing? This is for a 2012 2 door Auto

I'm curios as to why you went with shock for a 4-6" lift, instead of one that is meant for your lift?

I think he's going with those shocks for max droop, and RK kits run much bigger than advertised prob netting at least 3.5".

Your order looks good, maybe add the longer rear sway bar links.

These are the shocks recommended if you want :

When running these long shocks for this application we recommend bottom front coil spring retainers and rear coil spring retainers top and bottom. This setup will provide you with a Low COG type build with roughly 1/3 compression - 2/3 droop type system.

I have spoke to a few people running the longer shocks and it gives really good articulation.

Hope that makes sense.

Makes sense to me… Please post some pics after you get it installed!
