It depends on your set up. Once you get your suspension on you need to articulate it and measure what you need to keep the tires from rubbing. If you are running trimmed or flat fenders you should not even need extended bump stops to run 35's

X2 ^

Also, the bump stop should stop the axle travel, not the shock. Best to measure this stuff with the Jeep on jack stands, the springs out, and the axle on one or more jacks.
