Help picking a shock?
hey everyone. (again). if you havent read any of my posts in the last couple days, I lifted up my cherokee.
I got 3" Lift from skyjacker. included is a full leaf spring, coils, lcas, and tracbar relocation brackets. let me find the link....

here it is... thankfully my brother works for the website and also has a cherokee so i paid his pricing. came out to like 310 after shipping and tax so im not complaining.
point is i still riding on factory shocks and they suck. i had mentioned that i dont want to stiffen up the ride at all and i read that the skyjacker nitro 8000s really stiffened it up.
back in the days of wanting a tacoma trd offroad (awesome truck but about 10-20x more expensive for the same year and mileage as my jeep (2001, 100k)) everyone on the forums raved about the bilstein 5100 adjustables.
i looked on SORP but theres like 14 different options http://www.seriousoffroadproducts.co...rs/5100-Series
and i have no clue which is the one id need based on the lift that i installed. or if i should even do bilsteins or something else... honestly no clue. like i said i dont want to stiffen up the ride much if at all.
thanks guys.
