RK 3-inch lift with Mopar FOX shocks ?

[shrinkhead]

weird question: my RK 3inch lift is ready for install but still no sight of the falcon shocks so I was curious if the FOX shocks from the MOPAR 2-inch lift could serve as a hold over. Maybe need larger bump stops? cannot find any info on the shocks in the MOPAR lift in terms of how far they can extend etc

Well, the Mopar lift I put on my Sport gave me 3.25" in front and 2.5" in the rear. I would think they would be fine for a 3" lift.

The RK 3" lift specs front shocks which are longer than the Mopar 2" lift shocks. You should be able to use them as a temporary solution, but you won't get full extension (droop) out of the suspension. No bump stop adjustments should be necessary.

From RK:
Shock Notes:
Generic Front Shock Length – 17.5” Collapsed/ 29.5” Maximum Extended
Generic Rear Shock Length – 17” Collapsed/ 28” Maximum Extended

Member measured Mopar 2" lift shocks:
Front shock extended 26-3/8”, compressed 18” = travel 8-3/8”

Rear shock extended 27-15/16” (prob 28” but the aforementioned is what I measured) compressed 19” = 8-15/16” travel
