guys, i am going with the 9012s up front, i need to know the following;
(4" SJ lift 1" BL)
the current shocks: 26.04 extended, 15.39 compressed
RS9012s: 36.91 extended, 18.94 compressed,
now according to that i should have to move the shock mount up by 3.55"
and that will still leave me with an extra 3"-4" droop.
and allow the shock to compress without topping out.
if i only moved it up 2" then i'd have about 1.5" less compression and possibly topout the shock
is this correct? or did i mis something?

thanks :beer:

All your numbers look correct. A couple things to think about, do you currently max out the shocks you have? Do you have any room for the tires to compress further? Do you plan on going up in tire size anytime soon?

Basicly mount the shock so the bumpstop stops the axle before you bust the shock
