How Many Washers for Rear OME Shocks?

It looks like mine don't have any installed. How many should be used? I was told by a Lost member this may be the reasons for the noises I'm hearing. How many per top and bottom?

Enough to fill the space between the bracket and the shock. I centered mine, I think, it's been a while.

Okay thanks for the input so far, everyone. I hope they can figure something out at the shop tomorrow. If it's anything worth mentioning, I'll post here tomorrow around lunch time since I'm dropping her off at 8 A.M. to look over my suspension.

I got to speak to the guy that installed the lift and he said everything was torqued on the ground as it should be. He didn't have much to say when I showed him the unequal length bolts on the rear shocks. He also stated my end link bolts look normal and that's just how they look when they're torqued after a lift...

Shock bolts are fine, not in the right place has a couple switched but they'll work.
As far as everything else personally I wouldn't worry about it, check everything over and drive the darn thing ! :wink:

Ya know you can worry yourself to death!

I hear ya on the worrying lol. This is my first "new" vehicle. My last vehicle was a 1977 Plymouth Road Runner rat rod that had a very rough ride.

I want to get it checked out cuz I'll be on vacation in about two weeks and may be driving a lot with this really pretty girl who still seems to tolerate me after two years.

I want to make sure everything is safe especially with her in the Jeep.

As soon as I get everything squared away at the shop I'll feel a lot better.
