Anybody upgrade their shocks on unlifted JK?
If so, what did you go with? I went up to 33" tires and I feel like the front end is stiff now. Wondering if new shocks would make for a more cushioned ride.
Yeah, they were overinflated when I got them. To get the TPMS to go off, the tire shop aired them up to 37psi!! I have been slowly lowering the pressure here and there, but it doesn't seem to be getting much better.
You don't mention what shocks you have now so it's hard to suggest something. I, for example, have the high pressure shocks with the tow package and they are firm. You can always go to a low pressure shock but your ride stiffness is probably your springs not the shocks. The shocks hold you to the ground, your body rides on the springs. If your new tires have a much stiffer sidewall that may be your change. Get that tire pressure down - what is it?
