Just finished replacing front struts and rear shocks with Bilstein brand. Also replace front upper control arms and front sway bar bushings. This Jeep is smoother and corners better than it ever has. Corners flat like a Bimmer and the ride is perfect.

I've driven my OME lift--springs, Nitrocharger Sport shocks--with JBA UCA's since September. I thought the new springs/shocks would be stiffer than stock, but it's much more responsive and "springy" than before. Less body roll.
