    O.K. So far all my posts are probably making me sound like an IDIOT!!!! :oops: But my next question is how do I determine how much lift I have on my Jeep? PO did alot of modifications. I did not get alot of information him when I purchased. I know that I need new shocks. Stock ones installed and they are shot. I believe that they are too short for my set up. Tire size is 33X12.50X15.

    If you want the right shock absorber length, do not trust any recommendation based on lift. OK for the average Joe, but if you really want it right you need to measure the needed length compressed and extended. Then go to the rancho site and pick out what you need. Not that I recommend their products, but at least they have a chart.
