I am installing a daystar lift and I want to go ahead and change my shocks while I hae it apart.

I have seen here on lost that 4x4 durango shocks can be used but I dont know if for the front or the back. Which ever one this works for what would be a good replacement for the other?

Thanks

Josh

If you can find them - you want Rancho RSX17505 for the front and RSX17004 for the rear
All-J's has the fronts - but they haven't been able to get the rears - those were the Durango shocks.

JeepinbyAl could get the rears also
someone just got them from Summit racing as well I think
Make sure you get some extended front bumpstops from Teraflex as well if the kit didn't come with any

For the rear shocks I highly recommend the Old Man Emu OME N132L.

You'd just use stock fronts and longer rears only if you're lifted. If you're not lifted, do NOT use longer rears.

I ordered my RSX (17505 and 17004) from Jegs on 2/12, and they are on the truck and will be at my house tonight :) Also got a decent deal - $311 shipped because they price matched AllJ's.
