I've been looking around and these are the prices I have found.
I want to know where everyone got theirs and for how much, trying to save some money here. I got $200 saved up for it so I'm getting there.
These are the prices I have found:
OME 927's: $164
OME 948's: $164
Rancho RSX 17505: $173.98
Rancho RSX 17004: $123.98


Those prices are for two, e.g: two OME 927's :$164


So let me know how much you paid if it was any cheaper.

Well I just did the math and getting them from All J's will save me about 20 bucks, thats if I get the OME 790's instead of the 927's.
I estimated the 17505's at $170 cause the cheepest I found was $173.

I'll probably get the 790's over the 927's anyways just incase I do get an ARB in the future

Until you get all the armor,bumper,winch,and such I'd skip the OME790's,you will not like the ride being lighter and you will kill the rest of your suspension(balljoints and bushings) in very short order.Wait till you have the weight and then upgrade,the 927's will be more then plenty.

Just last week I got the Rancho RSX17004 for $51 or 53 shipped from Amazon.com. I can't remember which, i think $51

$51.54
Just looked.
I want to buy them now. But I also want to wait until I get the springs.

If they have them in stock, buy them. When I bought mine they said they only had 2 left in stock.

I'm going to wait a month to buy more, probably have all bought by sept 1. I'm attempting to spread out the cost over different credit cards and month statements so as to not raise any eyebrows when the bills arrive...

I searched around a bit last week and only found the OME coils for around $150 per pair. I'll be buying mine from All J's when I'm ready. If all are roughly the same price, I'll buy from the one with a good rep and supports LOST.

If I do buy them now should I install them when I get them or just wait until I get the other components so they all have the same ammount of miles on them?

Because they are made for the rear of a stock Durango.They are 3" longer then the OEM KJ rear shocks.

I'd definitely wait. Way too much effort to take it apart twice, and you'll be relying on your junk springs to support it.

I didn't even look myself....I thought there was only one RSX17004, and thats what everyone uses. If they aren't exactly equivalent to the stock ones, they won't show up in the list for your jeep. I assumed they were meant for the lift, not for stock replacement.

Well i searched rancho 17004 and those are what came up.
Then where it says "will this fit my car" or something like that i put in my 02 libby and it said it didn't work.
I don't want to order them and then they show up and turn out to be the wrong ones.

The 17004's are the correct ones,just listed for a stock Durango.You may need to add a washer on the top bolt since the 17004's are just a tad narrower on the top eyelet then the KJ's shocks but they do fit and do work,I have had the 17004's under the rear of my KJ for 2 years with no issues as have many,many others.

Ok. I didn't see your previous post.
But thanks for clearing things up for me.

I think I'm just going to wait until I have the money for all of the parts before I buy them so I don't have them sitting around and mocking me says "HEY!! I'm here but you can't put me in yet!! IN YO FACEEEE"

ha

I've had the 17004's as well for a couple of years... I liked them a lot until I got the OME 132L's... those shocks feel liek they dampen better IMHO

I know Summit and Amazon have cheap Rancho 17004's, and they both have cheap/free shipping. But the 17505's are expensive at Summit.

For the 17505's, make sure they are not from offroadtoystore.com!!! They went out of business, and they had a great price. I had to use my stock front shocks because of that :evil: .

The pricing for All J's is great, but I e-mailed Heather and got a shipping quote for North Carolina... About $100! He lives in Florida, so it may be similar. So shop around and make sure you find out all shipping costs and factor it into price. That's why Amazon and Summit are good. Amazon's shipping is free for a lot of stuff, and Summit will be like $10.
