are 2" longer shocks compatible with standard height springs?
hi guys the problem i am having now is like this: my gq have some leak from the shocks and i am looking to replace them before my journey. if the gq is stock i wouldnt mind adding a few hundred bucks to get the springs as well to give it a 2 inch lift. but the problem is that it already has a body lift done to it by the previous owner so if i get the 2" longer springs the vehicle will be way too high for me. so, if i do the 2 inch suspension lift kit i would need another few hundreds bucks to get the standard body mount to remove the body lift. i would surely go this way later but not for now as my budget is really tight needing to keep some coins to spend on the journey. therefore i am wondering if i can just get the longer shocks first (so that i dont need to replace the shocks again when i do the suspension lift in the future) and keep the standard spring for the moment? would it be bad on the shocks with this combination (longer shocks and standard springs)? sorry for bad english hope u get what im trying to say
