which ones are which? It may just be me but the only ones that I know are the rubi ones because theyre listed. Otherwise I dont know what the others are or what models theyre from.

Sorry, not really following what you are saying..

Each row represents a particular shock setup. Stock indicates fox factory rubicon, Mojave and Mopar 2 inch lift. I will spend some time later tonight to scrape off more information on Fox shocks 2.5, and 3 models.

Apologies, I may have miss understood the purpose of the chart. By stock you have a stock rubi. I thought you also had data on stock sport / sport s / max tow / overland / willys. My mistake

NO worries, just the ones that most care about.. Like I said, will update it with some more specs. Have an idea how to reorganize it a bit. So PM or post specs that are missing and I will gladly update. If you have other non-rubicon shocks, I can also enter those in.

Thanks!

If anyone needs a rear Fox shock which is 28” long (perfect for not having to replace brake lines), the JKS spec 2.0s are part number FOX98224927. They are 17.35” collapsed, and 27.95” extended.

I thought you didn't have to worry about the rears until you got near 30" extended?
The front cutoff is about 28" to avoid front driveshaft issues.

Looking at the numbers, nearly every non spacer lift increases front height to the point where the fox 2-3" shocks become a limiting factor, so the 3.5-4" shocks for the front and 2-3 in rears should work

Even at 28” in the rear, the brake lines are stretched to the limit when flexing. Add longer brake lines if you are using shocks which are over 28” extended.

Updated table to include teraflex JT specs and reorganized the table a bit to make it more clear. Will add 2.5 and 3.0 Fox shock specs tonight.
