Bounty's the pro on that,

for expensive, $15 part store will do.

Rubicon Express sells Doetsch Tech 3000 shocks with their BB kits, great smooth hydraulic shock. If you think you'll eventually go with a 4" kit and the BB is just a stepping stone, I wouldn't spend much, $15 parts-store cheapies will get you by.[addsig]

Cool, I just put one on a Jeep a few weeks ago. You'll like it.

A tip for getting the spacers on the rear bumpstop bracket. If you don't have a big enough vice to squeeze it on, put the spacer and the bracket on a floor jack and put the jack under the rocker panel of another vehicle. Raise the floor jack and the metal bracket is pressed into the spacer. Doesn't take much pressure, definately a shade-tree mechanic method :lol: [addsig]
