bottoming out is what will bend things. when your shocks run out of travel the pressure is diverted to the shock mounts, which are attached to your frame. after your bottom shock mount breaks off you'll soon find the next closest, and weakest part of your frame. if you have a good landing you should have no problem going 30ft with a nice lip, heck you could probably go more. start making a jump and make sure the landing is just as big as the jump, or slightly bigger.

you can go as far as you want with a good downside

but you'll only lan dit right half the time.


I would invest into a set of shocks before you consider a ramp. Shocks on ebay can be bought and serviced for half the price of a ramp sometimes

somewhere around 30 feet you should be fine
