Hey guys I'm looking to see what shocks work well on the liberty CRD. I have the coil spacer lift but I don't know what brand they are. I bought it with them already installed. I want new shocks but need suggestions on what to get. Rancho makes a quick lift shock for them from what I've seen. Anyone try them?

I've got OME - works well - a couple of folks had the Bilstein with good reports

I had the Rancho's that they don't make anymore - but with a Daystar spacer lift

- combination was not good that may be more due to the Daystar than the Rancho.


Highly recommend OME springs/shocks as a combination..

FYI the fronts shocks lengths are all the same lifted/unlifted - you just change the springs
rears - lifted needs to be longer - basically the Durango shocks

for really good information - talk with Quinn or Heather at All-J's - they know KJ's (and they're normally at the Moab trips)

Martin at Jeepin by Al also has good parts - but I don't think he knows as much about KJ's

So the rear shocks on the Durango will be the correct length with the lift I have? What year Durango? Also so you don't think the Rancho quick lift struts up front would be a good idea?

If you want something that will ride as good as or better than stock go with OME or Jeepinbyal struts. Look up the tommudd lift on Jeepinbyal.
