What shocks do you guys run in the rear? I have a Rusty's spacer setup with the white rear shocks that come with the kit. It seems they ride real rough, and jiggle everything in the rear of the Jeep. Any recommendations?

I have the exact same situation. I'm also looking for better shocks for the rear.
I'll look into the OME's.

I run rancho 9000's on my big jeep. It is nice to have the settings on them to work with. Don't other with the in cab adjuster tho.

I am running the same w/ 2 extra isolators. The rear is so bouncy that the KJ has gained the trail moniker "Bunny" as the backend has a tendancy to bunnyhop after the front!!! :lol:

That rear shock is not long enuff for the extra isolators...that is why the OME Long rears would fix that

Yea, if its bouncing then you have a bad shock. After hitting a bump my rear doesnt rebound once.

I thought All J was out of the 132Ls and they had not received anymore from OZ (their website is contradictory)?

Guess I should call Heather and find out, huh?

Thanks a lot for the help guys. Should I go with the L or just regular?
