got the RE 3.5" lift and the rear (full leaf pack) seems like it is WAY harsh~
I am running 5100 Bilstien shocks front AND rear.
Now I am thinking I may have OVER tightened the shackle bolts, or something like that. it rides pretty nice on the road, but when you hit a substancial bump it is ROUGH! I mean it realy SLAMS in the rear end. I think I am going to take my wifes tack trunk which weigh's about 150 pounds and put it back there for a while to get thoes darn springs to soften up. I also noticed I only have like 1/2-3/4 of an inch Down travel in the rear. about the same as the stock shocks I think. seems odd to me, but I am a "FORD" guy comming voer to the Jeeps for space and price reasons.
just wondering if ya'll have got any ideas?
