I measured everything after installing 5" rear springs (TJs are too springy for me), and cutting 1 coil in the front. I like 'em down slightly in the rear.
I looked up all the commonly available at Kragen shocks, and used F150 fronts in the back on relocated mounts. I used stock chevys in the front and relocated the top mounts using the original rears mounts . Worked perfect!
OK I admit it . I am a total cheap skate
Rides real nice tho!
