Hi guys,
Somewhat of a noob, as I will demonstrate with these questions. I have an 2013 JKU Rubi with a Metalcloak 3" lift. I noticed the front driveshaft contacts the cross brace and exhaust at full droop so I've ordered a new driveshaft. I hope this fixes that. Now for the rear I planned on installing some EVO rock star skids that relocate the lower rear shocks up a few inches and let you cut off some of the rear shock mounts. Yet, I've been informed doing this with the OME shocks will allow the rear to drop too far and allow things to tangle up. So, not to be swayed from gaining ground clearance, I am considering do this yet adding some limit straps to keep it in check.
My questions are:
1) anyone else come across this issue with the rock star skids? I see nothing out there as far as write ups go on limit straps for JK's.
2) Is it not a good idea to have them on the front also just to keep the load of the front shocks at full extension also?
Any insight is appreciated!
