EVO High Clearance Long Arm Kit Issues

[AccuTunedJL]

Yessir, remove it and adjust bump down accordingly I have the foxs in the rear but no bump pd on the axle

Highly doubt that Jeep rear coilover setup in the photo is complete. Even if you removed the bump stop spacer and then unthread the air bump to be lower... you would still have the same amount of up travel (if done correctly).

edit: found a more recent photo with bump spacers:

That is true, i was thinking more a long the lines of the bump is as high as it can go in the housing and the pad is taking up unneeded space

How much shaft do you have showing front and rear?

How much shaft do you have showing front and rear?

5.5 front 6-1/4 rear. But my rear towers and axle brackets are different, i was able to move everything up higher and not gain height

Here’s a couple more pics of my rear bumps. It looks like the King springs have sagged even more now after last weekend’s light wheeling I did

Now I’m only about an inch or so away from the strike pad. On the plus side I can see in these pics it will be easy to remove. But maybe I won’t need to take it off once I get the new springs from AccuTune.

That should lift me up some more and then I’ll have about 5.5” shaft showing in front and 5.25” in back, and the rig should be sitting perfectly level.

What new rear brackets are you running?

Yeah youre gonna have to cycle the shocks with the springs off and see where they bottom out at, im gonna guess you can move them up a bit or remove the plate.

i have the rklong arm brackets and the rear shock tower is 3-1/2” taller because the shock mounts on the axle got moved up.

I have mine set up to get every inch of travel out of i can get before stuff hits lol

 

[Moto_21]

The stock rear lower brackets put the axle up pretty high already so it makes it more difficult because those tires will hit probably before the shocks are able to bottom

That’s how I WANT mine setup but the place that did my build are apparently morons.

So I’m on here talking to guys that actually know wtf they are doing trying to get this fixed as best I can.

It’s annoying as shit hitting those air bumps every time I get 1” of uptravel while driving

Yeah, it takes awhile but thats why i prefer dialing my own stuff haha can get it how I want.

The bumps might have too much pressure in them too for the ass end. Im not sure. But whenever you get your springs i can help try to figure it out

From those pics it looks like your shock is going to bottom out before your bump stop does in the rear that's not good.

The Evo kit uses a king shock that is actually a 14-in travel shock. My rig is actually higher than I want but everything's custom on mine because I have aftermarket axles and I did not use any of the brackets that were on there I do a lot of snow Wheeling so it's good to be a little bit higher. That being said in the front I have almost 17 inches of wheel travel.

No sir, i take all my springs off and adjust my bumps, it has about 1/4” left of shock travel left

 

[Moto_21]

I get a full 6.5” of up travel in the rear
