I would like to replace my OEM shocks for some new ones. What are a good brand, my jeep kk is at stock height. Will replacing shocks will it give me any lift at all?. |

No shocks will not give you any lift,the coil springs do that. |

Depending on how many miles you have upgraded springs maybe needed as well. If they are worn , new shocks will wear quicker since they will be working harder. You don't have listed what year you have or how many miles so its hard to say. If low mileage then upgrade to Bilstein shocks which would be much better than stock but reasonably priced. Remember you have to compress the front springs to install new shocks so if you ever thought about aftermarket springs now maybe the time to do so. |
