Hey everyone, I just finished my SAS and I can't post pics from my phone don't have tapatalk. But anyway, I got every thing in... XJ 6.5" lift springs and 2" pucks with a bronco2/xj spring pack in the rear. All together ir's about 10" of lift and it's 33" from rockers to the ground. So to the point, what shocks should I run? I'm on a serious budget so I was thinking maybe the pro comp es3000 or the es9000. Wondering if anyone has ran these, if so, how did they perform? Also, my axle seems to have settled about 1 3/4" to the passenger side, can't seem to wrap my head around this... Anyway any input will be greatly appreciated!

adjusting your track bar should center you back up...

pics, use photobucket.

shocks, pro comps are okay... but there are far better shocks out there.

The track bar is a ball joint on one side, it's a stock Xj bar. Unless there is some way to adjust it I think I'm stuck! Haha The drive shaft still looks strait... It's a off-road only vehicle, should I really worry about it?
also on the shocks I have about a $200 for the front two. What should I get?

I just did my sas in May, it came out great. Good luck with getting your all buttones up and sitting pretty. I ran 2002 F-250 Rear shocks all the way around. Compressed they are 17.75" and extended they are 33"! Worked for me. A buddy of mine ran E-250 in the front so depends on what you need.

I Think I'm gonna run skyjacker 8206 or whatever the numbers are they have 150psi nitrogen charge 14mm piston... Should work. On the track bar I found out the mount on the axle it's self is broken, so I gotta weld it back to hold the axle, I turned my steering wheel and noticed my front end was bobbing side to side, went out and saw I have about 1" of moving parts in my axle track bar bracket. More welding tonight! :icon_welder:
