DOes anyone know if these shocks will fit my rig. I have 4.5 inches of lift on my 1998 xj. Here is the link to the shocks:

Too long, wrangler shocks are longer as is. Those 4" shocks, on a cherokee, would be fit for +6" lift applications.

 

darn!1 those are sweet, would have liked to get them. Any idea where I can get a decent set of shocks at a good price?

Also look into monroe, ome, rancho.

 

do you like bds over RE?

 

BDS is better quality, RE has great products overall, but still need to improve on their shocks. BDS not only has great warranties, great cs, and CAV, but the prices and quality are amazing.

 

U could always raise shock mounts up to accomodate them

 

RE Mono Tubes are garbage. blew a front within 2 months of purchasing. They gave me the run around for 4 month telling me it was on backorder every time i called before i finally gave up. i ended up replacing them with bilstein 7100s. 5 months after i blew the first one i blew a rear an hour into my rausch trip.

go with bilstein shocks

 

With out having the collapsed and extended lengths of the shocks, and without knowing the specifics of your lift and the tire you are running there is no way to advise on the shocks in the link.

As far as BDS, I've only heard thet thier lifts ride rather stiff.

 

No.

Leafs are stiff, shocks are nice.

 

you would have to cut your rear shocks thru the floor and the front you would have to find some way to raise your tower mount and drop the shock mount on the axle
