Anybody have any suggestions for shock for my 01 xj. I have pro comps now I think they're the 9000. I dont want to spend over $100-130 per shock. Im thinking about the OME shocks or the Blisten's.

if that was possible on an XJ, it would look like $hit.Starboard M said:10'' body lift....

im trying to decide what bilsteins to go with, could you give me your reasoning for going with what you did?5125 rear, 5150 front
also, what is the difference, other than the resivoir, between the 5100, 5125 and 5150.
i went to there site but didnt explain very well the differnces
again, sorry for hijack
thank you!2001XJ said:my understanding is the only real difference is the shorter shock body and cross-flow resevoir on the 5150. It allows to keep cooler than the 5125 for higher speed bumps and repetitive dampening. Also, I believe you can fit longer 5150s in front becasue of the shorter shock body but I may be mistaken. I plan to run the 5150s in front and 5125s in rear for this reason and it cuts down on cost since I don't need the more expensive 5150s in the rear.
Save a little more and go with 7100's89xj said:sorry to hijack
