I've searched, and I can't determine the answer to my question.
I lifted my XJ about 2". I have OME springs in front and some custom springs in back. I kept the Monroe Relex shocks I had before the lift.
The ride was never very good, but now it feels very harsh, like there is too high compression rate. I'm begining to feel like I need a kindney belt! I hope it's not the springs.
It's strange, it seems to handle the small bumps and big bumps alright. But going down a rough highway at 70-75 miles an hour, my head is bumping the roof.
1. Would raising 2" have a negative effect on stock heght shocks? The rear is a little higher since there is a bit of a rake.
2. Would going with an OME or Bilstien shock make the ride cushier?
3. Are the other shocks that much better than the Reflexes (I hope)?
Thanks
