I'm searching for some new shocks.

Current setup:

2000-TJ
4.5 RE front
3.5 RE rear
Longarm- (radius front)(Tri Link Rear)
1.25 BL
stock location of shocks, but wouldn't be against moving them up and out of the way.

Who is running what? And what is working for people?

Help if you want to.

I have Greg's old Bilstein 5100s and love them. My rears are outboarded using the Ford shock towers however. '00 TJ, RE 4.5" springs, Currie J arms, 1" BL.
 
2nd for Bilstein's.
 
Ive got the OME LT's. They are roughly in the stock locations. They ride well and get enough travel for my taste. Ive had em for about 45k miles and they still seem to be holding up ok too.

had I not gone coilovers, I'd still be running 'em...

I was running Bilstein 5100's, with BPE's and stud eliminators in the front...and the Nth Degree shock shifters in the rear...

highly recommend the setup...

it gives you eye-hoops on each end (no more studs or bar pins), and gives a little more travel than the stock setup...plus, the Nth Degree kit in the rear gets the brackets out of the way for any rock climbing...

I ran the 5100's from Bilstien with the Ford towers in the rear. Loved the setup and everything seemed a lot more stable then with the shocks in the stock location.
 
What supplier did you use to get the Bilsteins? Local or online? Hard to beat online pricing but I like to support local when I can.
