60069 are the stock length rear shocks
Is those the one you were referring to?
N132 are the ones for a lifted one
unless they swapped numbers around again :lol:

Oh ok thats why the rear of my jeep rides really rough. Guess ill have some shocks for sale now.
Are these the same as the ones on amazon.com or are these the ones for a lifted liberty? Thought they were the same cause of the parts number being the same.

On ARBs website they show the 60069 for 1.5 inch lifts
BUT still show the 132L as the OPTIONAL LONG TRAVEL shock for the rear
I know the 132L is the same length as the old RSX 17004s we used to run and they were the perfect length when lifted 3 inches and above
You do have the option of running the Ironman shocks which actually is longer than the 132Ls
But I would want to be running the 132Ls or the ironman

Got a question I don't have a lift on my 2010 kk but I'm looking at the rock father 3in lift think it's on OME webSite now I scrolled down to the bottom n I selected the 469 dollar one is that all I need? Cause on JBA website they want 1300 dollars for a 3.5 lift 500 bucks is what I'm looking to spend on a lift so at least point me in a direction thank you for any help I'm new here☺️

Everyone's recommendation is to NEVER go with Rocky Road...ever...

JBA will be the way to go. Going with the 1.5" OME kit will net you 2.5". Never buy a spacer lift, they're awful (I used to have the 2" Daystar lift...).

You really need to go back and look at JBAs site, OME/ Ironman are both in the 800 range
Anything any cheaper and you'll regret it , lots of tired and then had to redo their suspension
1300 is for everything you need including the UCAs
For 469 on RRO you are not getting a full spring lift kit both front and rear

I honestly don't think their that bad. but maybe its the quality of the plastic that would make a difference. not sure. but is the cheapest "lift" out there. my stock springs are sagging already and were not sagged at stock height. so by the time I get new springs, im pretty much 200 or 300 bucks (over priced) away from larger springs. spent 300 on the spacers so that will be a waste when I get new springs. the spacers came with a whole bunch of extra poly bushings other spacer kits don't come with.

Have you ridden in a full spring lifted KK yet?
I find most that think a spacer lift rides good are blown away after either riding in a lifted one done right or doing their own with full spring

Just came in from jba website. Are they the correct ones for a lifted kk? just want to make sure because the last ones I ordered off of amazon are for stock height.
