Default Shock advice

Ok, This should be the last question before the new set up is on and I can post some pics.... I have on order 15"x8" ion rims, 33"x12.5"X15" cooper discoverer stt's and the teraflex leveling kit. All should be arriving hopefully by the weekend. My question is should I replace the factory shocks with something with a bit more travel, or will i be ok with the stock ones? Did I mention that Im pushing 100,000 miles. The shocks still seem ok but was looking for some good advice.

Run the shocks that you have for now and see how it works out first. do you have a ruby or x model. if you have a ruby they are good shocks. stock shocks are good for up to 2" of lift.welcome to the forum.

Usually when poeple replace shocks with 100,000 miles they notice the difference. Try to find some rubi take offs if not get some other quality shock.
