My lift altered the geometry of my suspension. I ground the edges of my bump stops to give me another inch of travel, then limited them there. I pre-run out in the desert, and sometimes run the Prim and Glamis Courses.



There is a 4 runner, multiple quads and bikes, jet ski, 70 Challenger, Manx, sandrail and a bunch of other stuff we have in there.

The Manx up front there was getting worked on because we're installing long travel suspension to it. Should have about 14 inches when we're done.

I'm currently in the process of designing bolt on long travel for my truck. I should have about 18 inches of travel, with only a hoop and minimal engine cage. I'll be running a 35" tire by then. Locked rear and deavers as well.

The 4 runner there is getting a supercharged 350 and long travel as well.

We're desert people, we pre-run.



Those are procomp 9000's. Great nitrogen filled shock. They are designed for +2 inches of lift. Longer 2wd shocks are all over the place, just look a bit harder. 4WD shocks will not fit 2x4's btw.

People on this forum are deadset that 2wd trucks cannot offroad, however where I live, you will rarely see a 4x4 in the desert. In fact, most built trophy trucks are 2WD.
I have been calling several places and asking around in forums to get a straight answer on a +2 inch shock absorber for my 2007 RAM 2500 2WD. I got little to no help... Does the ES9000 have the same bushings etc. as the OEM shocks. Will it fit my truck with +2 coil spacer?

thanks.
