Anyone out there swapped the 2.5" coils for the 3.5's or 4.5's? I'm currently on the 2.5's and wanting to know if I can just swap out the coils and keep my shocks. @Rock Krawler Suspension

Going to a taller spring is fine, you will just be giving up down travel since your suspension travel is mostly limited by shock travel. You may also need longer sway bar links to make up for that additional height +/- other adjustments

What shocks do you have ?
I have the 2.25 RRD Rock Krawler shocks for a 2.5" lift. I like the setup and the shocks...just wanting a little more height and clearance for the 37's.

Those will work fine. You can go all the way up to 31” extended front shocks , and 32” extended rears and those 3.5” springs will not unseat, just a little extra info incase you feel the need.....:).

Will it work? Sure... The taller you go with the same shock, you are losing down travel at ride height. Are you able to find the compressed and extended lengths or those shocks and compare to where it sits now at ride height?
