Shock absorbers Rancho or KONI
I went with Rancho RS7MT, I love the ride with my Clayton 3.5 lift.
Looks fine, and acts like a shock. That shop just trying to scam you. Bump stops looking torn, but that's fine. Use them as long as possible, eventually upgrade to Koni Yellows if they make it for the Mini's.
I switched to Koni special actives (red) and like them more than stock
People keep saying Bilstein, but I’d highly recommend Koni yellows. I’ve had Bilstein b6/b8 and they always get harsh over broken pavement. The Konis are much more smooth, less bouncy, just much nicer overall. They have knobs for rebound adjustment as well.
I finally bit the bullet this week and ordered a full set of Special Active shocks from KONI (who I believe licenses their Frequency Selective Damper technology to Tesla)
The result is way better than I expected!! I don’t regret it one bit! It basically ate up all the small bumps on the road. I regularly find myself going over 90mph on the highway without realizing because of how smooth it is!! And this is with the stock springs.
Rancho RS5000x's not the normal 5000. They are fantastic. My buddy and I both run them on our TJs. I mostly street drive my 98 with a 2" lift and he has a snow wheeler on 35's and a 4". We are both extremely happy with them.
I have to Rancho 9000s in my identical looking TJ and it rides great. Anyone who drives it can’t believe it’s a lifted TJ
I have Koni stocks and H&R springs with a 20 mm lift (barely noticeable). I like the way the car became more stable and controlled on gravel and highways. However, springs are considerably stiffer, and with 1-2 passengers suspension feels a bit rigid, but just great when the car is fully loaded.
I've been using the Koni Golds (FSD) for many thousands of miles. They are really really good at 80mph, but in town they shake my teeth loose and bump and klunk like crazy.
They used cheap shit quickstruts. Buy new OEM springs and Koni shocks and it will be back to normal.
