Hey guys So I recently got a good deal on some used teraflex shocks. I was told they are for a 2-4" lift. Well I got them home and they are for 6" of lift. ( I looked up the part number) I have a 07 JKU 2.5" teraflex lift with shock extensions. The 6" shock are significantly longer. 32" when...

Hey, I'm new to JF and this my first post. I recently noticed some pretty loud banging from my Jeeps rear end. After further inspection I determined that the rear passenger lower shock bushing is worn out. The bushing is still in place but has become worn and there is a bit of play in the...

I always come here for the best advice... so here goes - I just replaced the lower shock mounts (welded to axle housing) on my stock '90 YJ (one was rusted through so I did both). The replacement brackets looked about 3" shorter than the OEM (they were the only ones I could find) so the rear...

Hello everyone, I'm looking to get shocks for my 86 CJ7, and have been heavily considering the Bilstein 5150s. My concern is with which valving I should go with, the 170/60 or the 255/70. My jeep has about a 5-6" SOA lift on it, and is used mostly for riding rocky trails / wash board roads. I...

Here is a list I made when I was picking out shocks for my home brew lift. Putting it down on paper really helped me pick the right shocks for me so I hope it can help some one else. I used air shocks front and rear, mostly because of cost and so I could level the back easily. But I listed...

Have a 2007 Wrangler unlimited 4 door with what feels like very squishy shocks. I'm looking to replace the shocks with some that will firm up the ride somewhat but not make it jarring or teeth rattling. No lift installed and don't plan on installing one any time soon. Any adjustable...
