Title: Wanted, new shocks.
Post by: UKJeeper on April 14, 2015, 03:49:44 PM
Looking for replacement shocks for the YJ. Suggestions? (bear in mind it's SOA). Also a steering stabilizer

Rancho are the only company I know of that generates a complete list of everyting with full details. They have hundreds of shocks listed with diffenet mounts, compressed and extended lenghts.

Everything else I have seen just says for a standard truck with such a lift. Unless you are talking Land Rovers then they always state plus X inches.

Just bought a new set of OME ones from Quadratec to replace the ones on the TJ, they have been on about 8 years & are a little tired now.

Yep, TJ has had OME lift for 8 years now so shocks have done well, just gone a little weak so Bubba made me spend a bloody fortune (again) getting the new ones  :icon_rolleyes:

He's a right cad & indeed a bounder that bloke  :hysterical:

Love the OME on the navara - I'd certainly look at those when replacing the ones on the TJ :)

Glad to hear that...I've always had a good run out of Monroes and still do...after six years on my Patrol, they are still performing well.
