In this video I am Configuring my Jeep XJ Shock Travel and Bump Stops for 35's.
Since my last wilderness trip I've had some big jobs to do on the Jeep XJ to ensure its reliability and performance. I've been ignoring this work for a while but after a failed front shock, badly installed rear shocks and poorly setup bump stops its time to get this thing sorted before I go out again.
In this video my aim is to move my rear shocks to the front and build an adapter to make the rears fit the front. I will also need to fit new shocks to the rear and adjust the shock angle so that the function correctly. After the travel is all set up I will get the bump stops dialed in for upward and downward travel.
Thanks for watching.
