Stage 1 kit " Ocotillo Cruiser"
Here is a look at the stage 1 kit installed and at full compression. Here are some actual numbers to show you what is going on with the front suspension. The coils for our 4" kit "Ocotillo Cruiser" are 19" and shock length is 18" at full extension. Now we are going to hit the ULTIMATE fall guy jump...... fully compressed your coil would be 9" on the bump stop and your shock is 12". Your coil compressed 10" while your shock only moved 6". Showing that the ratio is 1.6:1 or there about. Not to mention your coil is over coilbound and your engine is now in your lap..... not really but maybe....
In order for your bump stop to be used before your shock we could include a 2" block to lower your bump stop so you could hit it before your shock bottoms out. The fox shocks have a rubber bump built into them which works well if your are Lee Majors hitting those sweet jumps in a "van" pushing the coils to the limit.... IN that case we would love to do a coilver setup on your van that would really be amazing....
Here is the suspension at full droop on my personal pre runner, it has the bumps that you are talking about. This has 28" of rear wheel travel...Which you can hit the fall guy jumps. I would be more then happy to show more pics of it in a new thread.
I hope this helps with any misunderstanding of suspension Geometry or concerns about bump stops. I want you to know you are getting a superior kit that is going to give your van the best performance possible.
