Remember, you ordered from JBA so they're already valved per JBA specs. I doubt you'll need to dial them in any more unless you want to firm them up a bit.
We will see how I like them and go from there...
Hey man are there any marks on the bottom of the shock mount that look like this? Might give an indication of the valve setup. FOX just got back to me and recommended 60/80.

There are marking on the bottom of the tube, reads 30/90..
Good to know!
Omelets are 30/60
JBA's are 30/90
Fox Recommended 60/80 for me based on the specs I gave them.
I'm going to go with the Fox recommendation since it was based on my vehicle weight (heavier than most WK's), and coil spring rates. The 30% compression valving is probably conservative since someone with a 3.7 base WK could order the same shocks at a Hemi Limited 5.7L XK with armor.
Let me know how they feel and Ill make adjustments as I see fit, if at all.. This is crazy we already have 6 detailed pages in this post in a matter of a day!!! Love this place
Alright they are in simple install as expected, I do need to go back and tape upper bolt it rattles a bit but no big deal. On the top I simply cut bushing to fit and that was that. Bottom took two sleeves each side and three washers total, I thought it was better spread them between each side.. here are some shots..

Didn't get any flexible shots, crappy weather and fighting a cold so I'll report back with some flex pics some other time. Ride is great a bit more stiff but again didn't really test them out yet..

It doesn't look like you will have a lot of up travel with those shocks before they top out. Looks awesome through
I had to push them down a good 2" to get them to mount, so they may not have much when level but the articulation should be where It's advantage is..
