I did a quick search and found no info on long travel shocks in an XJ. So for a while I have been thinking about 16"+ shocks in front and rear of my 92. I don't plan on running any bigger than 33 12.5 on 16" rims with 4-4.5 BS. I have a TNT Y link lift.
I want to know if I can run the 33s with out the 3" bump stops that came in the kit. I know I will need to will trim and flare, so what I want to know is can the 33's be stuffed in with the stock bump stops?
I Know the shocks will bottom out if they are bolted in the stock location, so I plan to cut a hole in the inner fender and fabbing a shock loop that will allow me to have a stock bump stop height (for lower center of gravity) and add MUCH longer shocks for better droop.
The rear will be a multi link coil setup with matching shocks.
For now I am just working on theory and any input will help at this time.
