What are "playable" hands in late position against limpers with J6os utg crap?

I play in late position:
- all suited connectors down to 9T
- offsuit broadway down to KJ
- Axs with lots of limpers (for two pairs, nut flushes, wheels),

But I don't built the pot preflop with that cause they hit rarely (by "hitting" i mean top two or better or OESD/FD) and I assume if I hit my nut straight or something, I will get paid off from all players that play their substandard hands and they hit only a TPNK or baby flush draw.

Fnord, you said you like to build the pot preflop in case you flop the big hand and the bigger pot will entice bigger calls. What are your "pot building" starting hands in late position?

Pocket pairs? big offsuit cards? suited broadway? I see this working with small/middle pocket pairs because it turns into lock 12% of the time...

edit: I guess I got my answer even before finishing my question. ty.
