Shock selection with lift

metalic · Feb 22, 2015

I'm researching lifts and I think I'm going to save for evo 3" enforcer. I will probably run rancho shocks but wondering what part # are the proper length?

I also notice enforcer doesn't come with anything for the front trac bar?

I run the rancho 9000 with my 3" lift. They are adjustable. Model #'s 329/330.

Did you do anything to recenter your front axle?

Just to clarify the shock height is not adjustable.

I run those shocks and they are nice. I would look at the evo rockstar skids if they don't come with your lift. I can't remember if they do or not. If you get them you want a shock that is 1" shorter in the rear.

I was looking at the rockstars. They don't come with the enforcer.

What are you doing for the front track bar or bracket?

I don't have anything right now. Just factory. I would get a drag link flip and you could get an adjustable track bar (JKS) if you see it's needed after.

I spent the $250 bucks or so on the evo drag link flip. Worked out nice.
But as overlander said, an adjustable track bar would work also if you needed it

I forgot the flip kit moves the track bar.

All I did was a drag link flip kit.
The models #'s I used are for the stock mounts. With the 3" enforcer.
And yes just the stiffness on the shock is adjustable. Not the height

Does the flip kit move the track bar straight up? How far up?

I have a core 44 axle and it has 2 holes. Stock & 2" up

The kit only comes with a bracket for the stock or PR44
