yes the rears are OK if you buy them separate
but with their front setup and can only use their shocks, plus low spring rate its not a good kit at all or my two lousy dirty pennies its not!

Is this kit any good or should I look elsewhere? |

Else where...... like OME 927/948 combo with either OME or Bilstein shocks all around many threads on them Skyjackers have a very low spring rate anymore ( 310 for the front, same or less than stock) |

pretty sure the jba25's are still the higher rate, about 15lbs over ome - only on the rear though, the fronts you'd have to go with 927s |

Thanks guys, it looks like I'll go the OME route. This site is a wealth of great info. |

The front struts and springs are weak, I had them and they held up om until I added the ARB and Winch, it sagged so much I would hit the brakes and almost scrap the ground. OME is the way to go, I'm still running the Skyjacker rear but that will be replace soon. |
