How much travel are you getting on the rf? -
Can you run on a stack? Or put in a heavy bump spring to limit travel?Comment

Have you upgraded to the raised crossmember for the blue? Pretty common problem unless it has the 2015 updatesComment

Not sure how much travel we are getting. Obviously too much but does anyone know how mich i can get before bottoming out?Originally posted by phenom08 View PostComment

If you do have a raised crossmember or a "newer" car in general with the raised cross member I typically find when I pack the rack full of mud the driver (myself) is too blame. When I overdrive and make mistakes like jumping out of the gas too hard then I notice the frame dig in.
If the crossmember is not raised then get it raised, then blame the driver if that does not fix it.Comment

You could also go to the drop snout spindles to give yourself some additional travel room.Comment

We aim for 4" travel and usually never travel more than 4.25" and our skid plate still looks new. Sounds like your traveling too muchComment

Im just learning about this stuff but should i use the hockey puck bump stops and shims to stop my travel at 4" and get my load rate at 4"?Originally posted by phenom08 View PostComment

Yes you want to set your load numbers for 4" of travelComment

I run stacks and bumps both and set it to about 2200 pounds at 4" but honestly man if you just lay off the brake pedal I think the problem would stop and you wouldn't have to worry about getting a cross member update etc. It's a little awkward to drive without it at first but after forcing myself to do it I haven't had the problem since.Comment
