So Gents,
I am in need of new shocks and springs for the 2 door JK. ::) Need ideas and prices! for the shock I was thinking Fox 8) and no clue for the spring but need to be a bit stronger than the stock ones, both bumpers will be replaced from stock to new xrc ones soon!! ;D ;D

If you want better quality and performance look into bilstein, fox, old man emu, all offer great on and off road performance. I've used these on a few jk's and they work great. I use doestch tech shocks on my Xj, they run a little stiffer on the street but I like them off road. If money is no object look at shocks with adjustable rebound and compression valving and remote reservoirs:)
Old man emu has good coils if you're adding a bunch of weight. Light, medium and heavy coils depending on how much weight you're adding and how much lift you want.

thanks I will have to look in to them I have been hearing good thing about fox with some of the adjustable stuff but I think a price for those might be a bit to much
