XJ Shocks for lift.

Ok, finished the rear springs today on the XJ project.  Come to find out the shocks that were donated to the project were a little too short.  Spring and shackle setup netted a 5.5 inch lift! :eek:  I'll assume that it will settle a little.  So I now need shocks! :swear_mad:

Just remember I am on a buget but want something decent!  Suggestions?
 
Go with a set of STM's, or you can move the shock mounts on the axle up higher on the tube. It will get your shocks into the right operating range, and give you better ground clearance.
 
Make your own lower mounts!!

I did this on my MJ just yesterday!!

That's a good link!

I'll still move mine to the center-line of the axle.

Good info though.  Thanks.
