Hello, greeting from panama.
i have a 2009 jimny with 1" coil spacers, when installing the spacers i noticed that the front suspension can travel more without the spring to move than the standar shocks will let it, so i wonder if i can put longer shocks to the car(1"+ anything else i can)
sorry for the bad english

There is no reason why you cannot increase yoru shock length, but you have to me aware that by increasing the shock length, when the suspension is compressed, you run the risk of the shock bottoming out. This could damage the sock.
