couldn't find anything in the section for junkyard parts that fit so i figured i would ask around.
i work at advance auto and can use my discount towards parts only problem is i cant get shocks for anything but a stock cherokee. i can get shocks for stock and lifted trucks, wranglers and just about everything else. is there anything i can use for the rear shocks that will work?
i will also be running 1.5" Detour Shock Relocators...

JK shocks are about 4" longer than stockOriginally Posted by Gee oh Dee
JK shocks are good for some life, but I don't remember for how much.
any year JK (2007+)? i tried looking for a monroe book but god for bid this place have the stuff we need to function. i took measures of the factory ones so hopefully i can find something...
Fully extended: 20 1/2"
Top Mount (across): 3 3/4"
Fully Crompressed: 13 3/4"
Fully extended: 20 1/2"
Top Mount (across): 3 3/4"
Fully Crompressed: 13 3/4"
I had to order the shocks in and now I have the measurements...
Full extended: 22 1/4"
Full compressed: 15 3/4"
Shocks for the JK didnt come out 4" longer but they will do fine with the 1 1/2" detour relocator going on. Just incase anyone comes across this later for a reference. I'll post pics tomorrow when everything is put together.
Thanks for the help!
