i have seen some one put a sky jaker lift on a jk and he used the stock shocks even went off road but they were streched to the max so they probably broke but he did not complain on the trail

also one of my other frends was riding around with out shocks while he was wating for his that actaly wasent that bad it was a yj

not sure if eather of those situations are safe just that it can be done

Just be smart and wait, why tear it down two times plus if I remember right you have to use the Skyjacker shocks with their springs.

it would be silly to install and then do it over anyways

and kingjeep ANYONE who would ride around in any kind of vehicle without shocks is plain stupid, it's unsafe and not being a responsible driver at all

actually I don't like the idea of using the stocks, it's just that since I live in México I have to wait a lot to get my stuff down here from the US... and also because I have to travel on monday and staying on that trip for 3 weeks... the guy that helps me bring the stuff here told me he had bought the shocks and a couple of days back he told me he had recieved them so he will try them on the kj to see if they'll and he calls me and tells me that they don't fit.... so I'm not happy because it has been like a 3 week waiting just to have this said to me!!! .....

does anybody knows a place where I can buy the shocks that ships to México?

thanks for the answers!!!

(I wont drive it without shocks neeverr!!! or even with the one that is broken...)
