Default Shock Extensions

I recently installed OME springs on my JKU rubicon. I was gonna get the shocks also, but down the road. For now I think the extensions are the way to go I guess. Do you need them on both the front and rear or just the front? Who else makes them besides Tera Flex?

Wouldnt I be more concerned with them limiting droop more than bottoming out?

I just took off my my shock extensions for my TF 2.5" BB cause I bought longer shocks. If interested, send me a pm.

Like already stated, it all depends on the trails you run or if you disconnect at all. If not, as already stated, buy longer shocks. If I'm not mistaken Rubi shocks are longer than the stockers. I just swapped my Rubi's out for TF's....

The rig only has 1000 miles on it so I cant say for sure, but I imagine it will be some with the sway bar connected (hunting trips), and some disconnected (wheeling).
