Wouldn't that limit your flex? Or do the stock length shocks just have a little extra travel in them?

Just purchased (4) Rancho RS9000X shocks. My factory shocks were wearing out. Can't wait to get these on.

MBrooks420 when I jack up my explorer the shocks top out right at the same time that my A-arms are about to hit my frame. I would rather have the shocks top out then have A-arm to frame contact.
Limit straps would be best. I might just pick some up.

If your a-arms are almost touching the frame then I'm sure your flex is pretty good. I agree the arms hitting the frame wouldn't be good.
