Hi ya'll. My 07 Unlimited Rubicon is in need of new shocks. I am running a 4" Currie lift on 35's. My JK is heavier than most due to my Gobi roof rack, as well as front & rear bumpers and winch.
After the Gobi install, shocks feel like mush, so i need to go to a much firmer shock. Can anyone steer me in the direction of the firmest shocks please?
Thanks for the info.
Paul.

 

What shocks did you get with the Currie kit? I know when I ordered mine I got 11" travel Rancho 9000.

 

Rancho RS 5000's.
They need replacing in a bad way.

 

Rancho 9000 are adjustable, other options would be King, Bilstein, Fox. I have Bilstein 7100's with custom valving. The rear are stiffer than the fronts.

 

Thanx for the info. I definitely need stiffer shocks in the rear also due to the Gobi rack.
How did you go about custom valving???
Thanx!

 

You need a heavier spring, it carries the load

 

Thanks Chris. What springs would, in your opinion, work better for the weight I have? I thought Currie was adequate.
Thanks!
