Articulation

Ok, finialy got to take my cj2 out and play today. I learned 2 things.
1, I'm going to have to get a lot better to keep up with my 25 year old son in the Samurai. And 2, my cj2 stock articulates slightly better than a bulldozer!
I know I need new shocks mine only have about 4-6 inches travel. Does anyone
have any good numbers for replacement shocks with more travel that will fit?
Also, what would be the easiest way to add some articulation? I don't want to
mess with the stock setup any more than I have to and don't need an articulation
monster. I just don't want to lift a wheel every time I run over a speed bump.
Any and all help would be really appreciated. Getting passed up by my son all
the time is REALLY embarrassing.
Thanks.

The Sami has an SPOA setup and I think most of my CJ problem are the shocks.
Think I'm going to check out shocks tomorrow and check into something like
the Hyper-shackle or Revolver. Any one using them? Do you need to change
anything?

Thanks for the reply. Sounds like the YJ springs and maybe the 3/4 rear
may just be what I'm looking for. I like the idea of stronger springs up
front. I'm going to be going V6 in the near future, if I ever get it.
Thanks again.
