Front tires are 27.5, though it says 28" on the sidewall...

I might have to settle for 3" of rise because (like lots of others) I've got the front end set kind of high for the time being. Even 3" of rise should be an improvement over the tiny bit it had before, though not as good as 5+".

After the shock extensions show up, I'll see what's left of the jounce travel...if that's used up then will have to go to a thicker jounce bumper like this or this. No sense punching the shocks through the inner fenders (roads around here are rough) and want to play it safe there. The stock jounce bumpers are only 1.5" tall and are pillow soft so a taller/stronger bumper should save it from itself.

Then I think I'll go with these rebound bumpers to get all the rise I can get out of it. The stockers are 1.5" tall, and mine are showing a little weathering so might as well replace them rather than cut 'em down.

That's the plan for now anyway...If that doesn't get it then I'll chase more travel later on I guess. Too many irons in the fire right now.
