I changed a few things from the stock kit and he was a great help in figuring it out. I will probably not use the extra travel but as the previous person said it is better to build a little extra capability in. Good luck
Ya I think I'll go all 8 CA's also just to have everything perfected.

Quote from OME:
"Extended length shocks are for 4-6" suspension lifts only and are not intended for uses with any Old Man Emu systems. Modified bump stops are required".

Footnote under " old man emu suspension systems".

I have the OME HD and standard shocks. I did not do control arms and the jeep drives fine. I did install track bars and extended bump stops. I also use my jeep more for overland travel than hard core jeeping.
