Hi all, I’m hoping someone could point me in the right direction on some shocks. I’m looking for some monotubes to go in my 98 4x4. Im currently on 31’s, nearly maxed factory keys, and 3 inch blocks in the rear (these mainly aiding tired leafs). Within the next year I plan on going up to 33s and installing aftermarket keys I have. I will also replace the rear leafs somewhere in this process. I’ve seen people post on here about running ProComp jeep shocks, as well as ones for an f150, but of course none of these posts have part numbers, and are many years old. I’ve also been looking at the bilstein 5100/5125. If anyone has any recommendations, they are greatly appreciated.
 
For the front with a lift, these are the ones with the most travel that will definitely clear your CV axles. I have compared lengths to all other options for stock/lifted:
Rancho RS5000X RS55374

There an many options for the rear. I have run the Skyjacker BlackMax with good results. They are non-nitrogen charged, so they really absorb bumps well.
B8541

I also recently swapped over to a set of Jeep Gladiator Rubicon (no Lift) Fox take -offs. These are fantastic! The dampening is so much better. They cost me $50 a pair. I did have to ream out the top mount to 5/8" to fit.
 
@fknrngr ,
Call James Duff Enterprise, ask them about their 70/30 shocks and dual 70/30 setups. I have never felt a truck handle better than with dual 70/30's on all 4 corners!!
