Shocks!!!!
Ok so after goin to Moab and playing around home a lil bit on memorial, I have realized I need new shocks. I am kinda "springy" compared to everyone else. How do I know how long of shocks to get??? I have an 8" lift on 35's, and short arms. But I can unseat the coils at least the driver side one. And what is a good mid grade one that wouldn't take to long to save for (hopefully)???
On another note, does anyone have the rear JKS shock relocater bracket that spans from one side to the other??? If so how do you like it??
Thanks Y'all

Most will say bilsteins and most will also comply that every white tube shock is junk. So it's basically whatever fits your price range. I have RC n2.0s and they are crap. I hardly wheeled with the shocks an I got 2 blown already. I'm in the same boat you are but RC is warranting my blown shocks

Well Unfortunately I Didn't Build The Lift. I Traded My 4Wheeler For The XJ. I Would Love To Put A Long Arm Kit On But That Shiznit Is Freakin Expensive For This Dude Lol!!! I Was Kinda Thinkin bilsteen But Don't Really Know. But It Works For Now I Suppose So I Will Just Deal With It!!!

I have bilstein shocks on my rig with 6.5" lift and 35s with short arms and although the short arms beat me to death at that height the shocks are amazing compared to the white bodies that were on it for years....long arm soon to come after my gears are done if motive ever gets them off of backorder (been ordered for 3 months now) ....long story short 1 vote for bilstein

You're going to have to pull your shocks and flex the suspension so you can measure between the mounts for extended and collapsed lengths. Once you have done that...
