What exactly did you do to pad up the brackets in back. Got a pic? TyNot completely from what i hear. Ideally you want to use valving to dial in a nitrogen shocks as well as the best spring weight based on the weight on all 4 corners.
Lowering tire pressure helps a lot. I run my 35 nittos at 30psi. With that alone I noticed better manners. Lowering the valve pressure helps as well.
Higher pressure does not always mean stiffer ride!!!! Between the coils and psi in the shocks I think I can get it where I want it without lowering the psi to much

Don’t have the Jeep with me right now. I’ll grab a pic when we’re together again lol.
I put about a 3/4” rubber mud flap on both sides right above the shock mounts. It was really on the passenger rear making the noise.

We left it where it was. I believe that was the reason for the rubbing on the driver side. Was 6 months ago. I’ll look as soon as I get home

That would be great because the directions said remove bolt from bracket but I don't think it said anything about afterwards.

If I remember right we left it in. It was noticed afterwords and didn’t want to undo body mounts again to remove it.

But it's not bolted back in right just floating in there? Just want to put padding in the right place on that side. You lifted body when you did it as well?

Not 100 percent sure. I believe it’s tight. Yes I undid the rear body mounts enough to slide in the mud flap

Stock bumps. Wanting king bumps but pretty sure I don’t need them yet. As far as what did I use, do you mean the mud flap?

Got one from local auto store. Cut off two 3” or so square prices.
