Shocks

I used the Rancho RSX 9000's in the front and Doetch tech's from RE in the back for my 7.5" + lift on my 87 XJ. I turned my rears upside down, I was told by RE that they can be run either way. The advantage is that you wont smash your shock body, but the disadvantage is that if you do contact a rock you will bend the Ram.

take your pic, everyone has their own opinions...

look into "shock Adaptors" and BPE's so that you have more options.

Pin Adaptors...


I personaly run the ProComp ES3000 because they're CHEAP!!!!
 
I have the same lift and I just ordered the fox 2.0 resis 11in travel for the front and 11in travel emulsion shock for the rear(not resi) these should work awsome. they won't pit from rocks and will be better than 5100's for prerunning but you prob could get away w/out the fox's for rock crawling. I just wanted a good shock since all im gonna be doin in prerunning.
