Well it currently doesnt matter what shocks you have when you are decranked that low. There is almost zero uptravel, probably taking any normal shock completely out of its intended travel and bottoming them out. Atleast you arent wrecking expensive shocks!

I'd definitely crank it up as much as you are willing to until you get spindles or something. How low are you in the back? I forget the stance of your hoe.
Rear is 33 1/4 now, was around 35 1/4 before. Front is 33 1/8, before was 35 1/8.

Hey @Red Rocket, @Fosscore I finally got the other bump stop today. Took me like 10 mind. Took it around the block, which was great, but I can't wait to see how it'll feel on the highway. Big improvement around the block. View attachment 78485Driver side.

Raised the front up a little bit too. Maybe 1/4 or so.
Are they supposed to be compressed that much?

Short answer: No, not even close.

Had a ~1-1.25" decrank on my denali and it sat on these perfect, just kissed em.

This is why it's advised to only drop 1" or so on keys alone. Maybe a bit more but not much.

I'm lowered 2 inches in the front with Belltech drop spindles and I need new jounce stops. I DO NOT want my front end raised up cause mine finally sits like I like it. The factory stops are 2 7/8 and those in your pics are 2. So what to do?
I bought stock ones and trimmed them because they raised me up a bit. Not hard to do.
