I need yall's opinion on what would give me a better ride quality. I don't want to flex but want to beable to haul butt down a bumpy beach. Right now my jeep is lifted around 4.5 inches. Adventually I plan on going to 6.5 inches of lift and running 35's. I have stock lower and upper control arms. My shocks are old and rusty and I have what I believe are dakota leafs in the rear and some very stiff 3'' coils with a 1.5'' spacer in the front.

I want to know what I should spend my money on first. I was thinking I would get the iron rock offroad longarms or some bilstein shocks. My dad on the other hand thinks I should go with some new RE leafs and coils. What would yall replace first?

 

first replace the control arms. if you plan to go 6.5" new lower AND uppers are needed.

so go long arm or adjustable short arm.

that is your major priority. it will help with the ride quality in the front.

next you want new coil springs 4.5" with the spacer or 6.5" right now

you will want matching shocks for your springs (length of the shock. long arms require a longer shock than short arms)

for the rear new leaf packs will help, also depending on your shackle angle look into shackle relocation boxes. It will allow you to have a better shackle angle allowing the spring to function more normally

 

If your shocks are junk, nothing else you do will help much.

 

but change those control arms or get a drop kit. mine rode rough till i did. a drop kit made a world of difference in mine.

you want to try driving mine? i have 5" so we should be pretty close

 

Rubicon Express long arm kit and Bilstein shocks is what I'm running. It rides as good as it did stock, if not better.

 

Thats ok but thanks for the offer. I get my pay check monday so I guess I'll be buying some IRO longarms. Thanks everyone for the advice.
