I plan to put a 2" puck lift with longer shocks on the rear, but I am confused as to whether people use the longer struts or OEM length struts! I have read the FAQ and tech papers on all the vender websites, and it seems that OEM length is recommended for the struts.Glad to see I'm not the only one who over thinks everything haha. I think you can get away with stock size shocks but you you will have better travel with the longer ones. Here's the page that helped me out, it has a bunch of options. I'm planning to do the same lift once I get everything else sorted.
Is this due to the IFS and/ or the puck lift is more leveling than lifting 2", or do I need the 2"more or less strut extension with the lift? Am I overthinking this?
I have a list of the compatible shocks.
Thanks for any explanation!
