Default Anyone runing Bilstein 7100's Series?

On a slightly lifted JK ? We want to use these shocks for sand racing on a lifted JK to about 2".

If so, what are you using as lock pins for the eye-eye shocks? Any pics of these installed would be great.

As for valving I have yet to see what coil spring rate I'm going to use.

Thanks for the help-info.

Currie as adapters so you can use standard eye to eye shocks on a JK.

Don't know about the shocks, but JKS also makes adapters to run eye to eye shocks in the jk

Does anyone know what rebuildable shocks with remote reservoir can fit directly in the JK, slightly lifted, about 1.5" or 2" max? I was thinking for the Bilstein 7100's but they are eye-eye and don't want to mess with the eye-threaded bolt conversion.

King makes some performance OEM replacement shocks with remote reservoirs.
