Looking for advice on coilover specs

[_corbingudgell_]

I have a 2 door black diamond non-sas. I already have all the supporting upgrades”upgrades” for around a 3-4” lift and just stuck on what coilovers I should go with. Looked at Kings with the compression adjustment, but it’s only the 1 adjustment. Then Peak suspension, which looked good but were just kind in normal nothing special. Right now I’m pretty certain on the Dobinsons MRR because of the 2.6” shock body and the triple adjustment. Looking for info on what spring rate in the rear (since they have 2 options) (just running a 37 on the rear and sometimes a bike rack) or if anyone has any experience with the Dobinsons MRR. Also open to other brands I haven’t mentioned, nothing is set in stone.

If you go higher than 3" over non Sas then you are looking at possible cv issues due to the angles. I went with the ProComp adjustable coilovers which I have set around 2" over Sas up front and 1" over Sas in the rear. Plenty of room for 37's and I was able to keep the stock UCA's and get aligned with the aftermarket wheels (17x9 -6 offset). The ProComp coilovers are really easy to adjust the height, you don't have to remove them and can just lift the frame to get some suspension sag and turn the collars. What are you ultimately looking to accomplish with the lift and what kind of ride quality are you looking for? The ProComps are firmer than stock but I really like the way they feel and handle turns on the road. Are you looking for lift and softer springs for a more comfortable ride?

Not really looking for the lift exactly, just need to clear 37s at full articulation. Going to be a lot of trails, so ideally something with an external reservoir and compression/rebound adjustment.

Not sure if you have looked into Ride Shocks (designed & built by AccuTune Offroad), but we have a ton of great features you may be interested in. We have 2 front and 2 rear options that are purely based on how heavy (from added accessories) your Bronco is. Each shock SKU will come with the appropriate spring rate, main piston valving and adjuster valving. Shocks are constructed from aluminum, designed to fit 37" tires and backed with a 3-year / 50,000 mile warranty. If you have any specific questions, please shoot us a DM, happy to answer any questions you may have.

@popo_patty has a nice review thread about these as well:
