Anyone Know which RE montubes I would use with a 3 inch lift on an 03TJ? The ones I see advertised are for 3.5" and above.

Mono Tubes for 2.5 inch will work up to 3 inch lift.

Also, instead of running the shock upside down use the lower shock mount relocators. They run about 25 bucks for a set.

I'd like to stay away from the relocators. Just one more thing to get hung up on.

They rotate if I am not mistaken, allowing them to slide out of the way. I know Charlie's do. Might be a different setup though, ask him...AZCharlie.

OK, Charlie must use a different setup. What I did.....beat the back of the coil bucket with a BFH to clearance it(actually Mike did it).

I live in Ohio, I'd have to do it every week during the winter. Blame the salt. It's not worth doing anything with it until Spring.
