hey i just got my lift on my new jeep! the front has about 11 inch'f of lift. i made brackets to mount in shocks with eye loops in the front, and went to national 4x4 (junk) and got some sky jacker 8000 and put them in. this truck will do wheelies if i want it to these's shocks are stupied! exspecially for a xj. what should i do over here in hamilton every 4x4 store its messed up i wanted nitro liquid shocks but i dont kno where ot get them that big! the biggest after market lifting shock with factory ends was 30 inch which is 5 inch to short but now that i have that conversion bracket i can use them but the ends are wrong!!!! what do i do? and i wil use my **** jackers for the back !!?

Bilstein makes shocks in custom lengths. Or give Doetsch a call, they can make them for you as well.

I just had custom FOX shocks made. There are based outa Watsonville California. They take 4-6 weeks to have made. But they are wicked!

aa i see it now thats a lot of cash but then i guess u could swap out those coils for coil overs and go as high as you want! i mean the coil over the shocks the ones u can order to any height

All it takes is money. Like they say, "How fast do you want to go? How much money do you have?"
