Installed Monroe Load Leveling Shocks on Rear

[Matt]

The OME are lift springs.

If you want to firm up the ride, get the Bilstein strut replacements and these load levelers for the rear and you'll be set. (Or you could remove the spacers and install the OME lift springs instead)

Edit:
Actually, try these shocks in the rear first before changing anything up front. After i installed mine the ride greatly improved... no more "floaty" feel. And when you hit the gas when the light turns green, the rear doesnt squat down before moving forward anymore lol.

Same here hit the gas the XK just took off no sagging first it actually felt faster that way LOL. These improved the ride in several subtle ways and I cant wait to put some load on them. It does have me thinking about some OME HD springs now and some nice struts for the front.

Wait for the JBA coilovers for the front

That's what I was thinking I'm just scared to see the price on those

If the price is ridiculous, i'll be going OME HD all around and then throwing my RC spacers back on when i get the 4" SL

I bet they will be in the $1200 range.

So Matt, when are you upgrading to longer monroes? LOL...

So i just took some measurements of my jeep...

When i first installed these load levers i was at:
Front: 35.9
Rear: 36.25 (up 1/2" from stock)

I'm an NOW at
Front: 35.25 (down 1/2" from previous measurement)
Rear: 36.25

It looks like I lost about 1/2" up front after installing the 4xG Matrix, those massive lights and the front skid..

Based on Sal's measurements i'd probably gain another 1" in the rear... so that'd put my rear 2" higher than my front... might be a bit much. I may have to hold off until I upgrade my front springs

No problem homie, i dont want to go higher just stiffen the ride a bit.
