Mopar Fox shock length

[Napajeep]

I’ve read the the Fox shocks with the Mopar lift are a little short. For those that have this lift, how close are the shocks to being fully collapsed during full compression (on the bump stops)? Is there enough room that you could put shock extensions on the lower shock mounts to get more droop?

They aren’t short. They are exactly what they need to be with a 2-3” lift. If you were so inclined, you could make extensions work with more bump-stop.


Specs for the Mopar FOX 2.5

17.50 collapsed and 26.25 extended on front
19.25 collapsed and 28.50 extended for the rear.

Thanks @AnnDee4444 for the list.

Thanks for the response. I was going off of what I had read, and figured if additional bump stops were needed for 37’s (not using all of the up travel on the shock), then why not add extension and regain that lost travel. But if they’re not too short, then all is good. Thanks again.

19.25 collapsed and 28.50 extended for the rear.

FWIW: Due to the angle of the rear shocks, the rear suspension travel is greater than the shock travel. For the Mopar Lift Fox shocks, the suspension could have up to about 10.5" of travel even though the shock's stroke is only 9.25".

When I say their to short , I’m talking about for me and what I want, not that they’re to short for the lift. Here’s an example.......

RRD2.25s

Do you know the travel of your shocks?

I know the extended length if that helps, 29.3 “‘ in front and 30.3” in rear. I think the travel is 11.5 in front and 12 in the rear , but not positive. The extended lengths I’m sure of.

Are you sure they aren't 28.3125" in the front? I can't seem to find any 29.3" extended shocks listed on their website. From: http://rockkrawler.com/2-25-loop-loop-emulsion-shock/
