FYI: I ran extended shocks upfront and didn't realize the upper ball joint was the limiting factor. A few months go by and the ball joint was trashed. It had 1/4" of play and created some interesting driving characteristics. I would not allow the ball joint to stop down travel. I assume the LBJ will stretch the socket when extended past the service angle.
Here is my UCA play after I removed them.
What extended shocks did you run? Are these the profenders? Did you use limit straps up front to stop it?
