Alright so I'm all about budget builds and I picked up some 2.5 lift shackles and new shocks from a jeep from a junkyard and have been driving it around as it looks like a dragster lol but I just bought 4.5 inch lift coils. What would be the ideal shocks I can get at a junk yard I'm all about the stock vehicles I can go pull any stock shocks from a vehicle from a junk yard. I've looked at many different websites and I've picked up tj and jk rubicon front shocks are 14.75 compressed and our xj stock shocks are 13.05 so what other vehicles stock shocks would be 15+ that I can goto a vehicle in a junk yard and get them off of? Does anyone know? My next research would be to fabricate a mount on top so I don't have to limit myself to a thread shock if you know what I mean. And yes 4.5 in front and 2.5 in the rear. But I have fabricated a heavy *** bumper.

 

I should also say with how heavy the bumper is it will probably give me 3.5-4 inches of lift with the 4.5 inch coils

 

Bump

 

Is this going to be your build thread? If not you will get more traction in the modified section or maybe cherokee chat.

 

Tbh I'm new and there's so many subject I can put this under but yeah it will be I'll post pictures of what I do when I do and I'll try there... thanks!

 

Wel, idk if this should be your build thread. Im not sure if you can change the title of the thread? Do you want your build to be called "shocks question"? Haha I think you should pick a name for your build and start a new thread. That's of course if you can't change the title. I'm gonna go try it now on one of my threads haha.

 

No I cannot but your right I'll start one with what I do and stuff on it! Thanks for the common sense help that I didn't think of tbh lmao I'm just worried about shocks right now...
