On my last desert trip I ended up coming into a set of whoops WAY too fast. Short of the long is... I broke a shock rod in the front :explosion(pics to come). I hit the brakes hard through the whoops which is a big no-no.
My front end is currently running RE 3.5's, RE adj. track bar, RE adj. lower and upper arms.
I want to get some RE 4.5 coils
I'm trying to buy the set up that I eventually want and not waste any money buying something in between.
So I need a set of shocks that can work with my current set up as well as the 4.5 coils.
I have my mind pretty well set on Bilstein 7100's but I am open to FOA's and Foxs. I don't think I need reservoirs as won't be heating them up too much on whoops. I THINK that I could do it and just change bumpstops/limit straps when I go up.
Which shock, what size, and will it work with both the RE3.5's and the RE4.5's?
Or should I stack my cash and get the 4.5's and the shocks at the same time?
Thanks in advance,
-Mike
