I am looking For OEM style shocks that are 3" longer than the stock ones on my 1998XJ.

I am doing a bastard pack in the rear & V8-ZJ coils/1.75" spacers up front.

My son works at Autozone, so I can get a discount.

I read somewhere that JK shocks will work. S-10 shocks are supposed to work for the rear I also read.

I also realize I will need to transplant the bar-pins, & have a press for that.

I was hoping one or two of the 4 billion CF members might have already figured it out, saving me some time???????

 

JK shock are direct fit and are good to 4 inches of lift

 

i have 99 xj, will any year jk shock fit?

 

they make shock extenders been around for years

 

I'm not sure which one but either the AutoZone or Advanced website shows which shocks you need for your XJ should you have a 2"..3" or 4" lift installed. It's right on the side of the page showing the standard shock selection.

 

Jk rubicon shocks worked great for up to 3 inches of lift for me. Try looking at jk forums for a complete set of takeoffs, shouldn't be more than $100 for a full set.

Not to mention the four dr jk is valved just right for a xj

 

Any year the shock length never changed like the body style

 

Cool beans! Thanks y'all, I just knew someone had already done this.

 

ther actually are some other jeep shocks out there I had them on my jeep. I dont remember what ones though. I had to change the bar pin in the bottom of the rear. Sorry I cant help you with the ones you need but maybe it will help.
