Shock recomenations
« on: March 05, 2013, 10:59:35 AM »
Looking for Shocks for the wifes ZJ with 3.5" lift.

Looking at the Roughcountry N2.0 but not sure where to get them locally. I am open to other options as well, just don't want it to ride like a tank. Jeep will see very little offroad use.

Not wanting to spend much more than $300 for all 4 corners.

any recomendations?

I have heard good things about Zone Nitros and the price is definately right.... I'm also looking to be getting  decent shocks soon, although I was leaning more towards Bilstein 5100's

What  I really want to do is move to Currie progressive coils with their matching shocks...."the Savvy" Set-up

5100's would be nice, but they are pricey. Who deals with Zone?

Rancho 9000's, lifetime warranty and they used to have a 4 for 3 sale during the month of April, not sure if they still do.
