Do, you have any idea if the shocks are completely compressed before the tire hits the fender? If so you're going to destroy the shocks.
Take a tape measure and see how much exposed shock shaft you have and then measure from the bottom of your spring up to where the bumpstop slides into the metal sleeve. You would want those numbers equal: So, if you have 4 inches of shock shaft exposed and 6 inches from the bottom of the spring to the metal sleeve then you will need two inches of bumpstop. I usually will try to adjust another 0.5inch though so 2.5". If your using hockey pucks they come in 1" increments so you're stuck with what you're using there.
However, if you have an issue with the tires hitting the fenders before the shocks is fully compressed you need to flex it out and measure everything. Again, measuring how much bumpstop you will need to keep the tire from getting into the fenders.
The hockey puck can be slid between the springs and mounted with a strong epoxy.
All the information is in the forum for ya though. A general search will help ya learn a lot.

im not a fan of the chrome neither. Im gana remove the inserts an paint them black..the bra is covering alot of stone chips i was going to remove it till i seen them all. The engine swap would be sweet but the other guy on here doing seems to be having regrets
It really saddens me to see the number of sheep that put those ugly azz wheels on vehicles. Just because one moron thought they were cool doesnt make it so.
well i didnt put them on it was like that when i got it. put their not the uglyest thing ever so idont see the point on buying new wheels. i already said i didnt see a pic thread an to move the damn thread. its funny to see the persanality diffrance from this forum over a lxforum. must be beacuse damn near anyone can afford a jeep an not everyone can afford an srt8 so the ones that can are generaly older an more edjucated.an have respect for people. keep on *****in jeepers i dont mind
