I think it's time to change out the OEM shocks. The Jeep is an 08' Rubicon Unlimited. I have looked around on the 4WD web site, and there are lots of choices. Or at least lots of similar products. Trying to sort the different products out is a chore.

What about the Rubicon Express series? Serious product, or fancy name? My Jeep is mostly stock except for a set of Rancho leveling coils which adds about 3" to the front end.

I use it as a daily driver when the RV is parked, and I still wheel it when I can find a place.

Any suggestions guys??

 

I really like my Teraflex 9550 shocks, great bang for the buck for sure.

 

low price good quality (all around 300 for a set) ......
Bilstien 5100
OME
Rancho rs9000 (adjustable)

remote res - High price , very high quality, features most dont need. (750-1500 a set)
elka
bilstien 5160
fox
King

 

Are the aforementioned shocks available in extended lengths for lifts?

 

yes as far as i know all of those are offered in a variety of sizes. you best best is to call david at northridge 4x4. he will talk you through all the options and give you the best price.

 

+1 to the bilstein 5100's. Keep in mind that Santa is going to be leaving quite a few lift kits under trees this year which means that Rubi take offs with low miles will soon be flooding the market...

 

Excellent point and i need tires!

 

Good info guys, thanks!
