Thats what some think.
But my cab is super quiet, and pretty comfortable.
Just cause it sees the rocks doesnt mean it cant be nice.

I'm looking at a full detroit for the front. I want a full case.
Well, fwiw, my DD will be getting a "creature comfort" package before our next road trip did 1600 miles with a droning glasspack, bad shocks, uncomfy seat, and a rattly dash and underpowered stereo.

YammieGuy I owe you. Finally got that freaking broken sensor out of the head with the square easy out. Took longer to get the new sensor in since it was bigger than the old one. I had to do some hammering to the edge of the valve cover to make some room to fit it in. Buuut now i have full gauges!!! Swap is complete, next is Tranny cooler and ZJ steering.

Quick question for you guys. I have a 98 xj on 31x10.5's, 3.5in of lift, stock bs rims. The front inner seam cut my tire so I did the cut and fold and also did some fender trimming. I flexed it on the rti ramp and it was at full flex before the tires were rubbing, would that be my jk rubi shocks bottoming out?

Good point, thanks. Il get it at full flex again then mark the shock with a sharpie. Then pull the shock and see if I can fully compress it by hand. If thats the issue then Im in the market for extended shocks.

Very easy, you pop the clips from the hood and take a screwdriver. It's hard to explain I'd have to go look lol ill take pics tomorrow and send you a message explaining it, it's easy
