    Are you talking about the "extreme long travel" kit? (+5", works out to be about a 12 inch shock).

    If so, I extended my front towers 50mm, I also plan to fit bump stop spacers, that's on a classic Rangie, but stands for Defender too.

    Cheers

    The only way to be sure is to get the relevant lengths with it sat on the bumpstops, get the closed lengths of the shocks, allow a bit for the amount the bump stops will compress under load and do some measuring.

    I got away with running +35mm turrets on 12" 7100 Bilsteins with std bumpstops on a defender

    Super-flex slotted bushes (mine are just drilled standard rubber bushes) and I can max out 12" shocks, the mirrors virtually rub the road on roundabouts!
