    i had mine raised about 1.25"-1.5" (i forget) with a custom mount

    [​IMG]

    i later trimmed my bump about 3/4" to allow better uptravel

    shows it compressed

    so with the increased lift on these..i may end up putting a few washers on the mount to raise the bump a bit to compensate..but with the full wheelers and a mount similar to this, you would be fine

    You can order the rear wheelers bumps without the tower and save a decent chunk of change. Then you can make your own using some tubing and bolts.

    Extended shocks installed. Just went w the extended 5100's. Also picked up 1" Delrin sheet today from my buddy who got it from the machine shop he works at. Gonna be using that to raise the bumpstops. That should be enough... ya think? If not, I will just go thicker..

    I do have a shackle lift but not ATO which is nice but patience is something I lack so I did my own. My measurement eye to eye is
    56 1/4 with an XJ shackle with 1 1/2 of lift.
