I have a far preferable contact for JRZ information that'll get responses way faster than Bryan Hise at JRZ USA.
JRZ west coast is far preferable, but Brian Karwan at Karcepts is *the man* for JRZs. |

Divorced setup is technically superior as it minimizes bending loads (and resultant friction/hysteresis) in the shock

I would agree if the shock and spring had the same motion ratio.

I'd take the trade off for a spring that was functionally linear. The rear does not operate linearly from the factory, in that location. A coaxial spring would be preferable. In practice, it's largely irrelevant for most folks on here. That also said, acquiring used springs for testing would be easier on a damper mounted spring, since it would be more in line with springs and lengths commonly available on the used market.

turb0mik3 . He has custom JRZ with rear coil over conversion. Was surprised how soft of a rear spring rate he was running.

I am running a rear coilover JRZ 11 32. I have the Rogue Engineering rear linkage and a 60mm spring clears the upper link by a couple mm's. It is doable, just have to make sure it will fit. I love them but haven't had many test days do to overheating, haha.
