Which Shocks??

I have OME and like them. I got the XJ fronts and ZJ rears. The XJ fronts had the bar pins like they are supposed to, and the ZJ rears did not come with bar pins, I guess ZJs don't use them. It was no problem for me, because MJs don't have rear bar pins either, but if you do not want to get BPEs or find your own bar pins, you may want to get the correct shocks, the XJs.
 
I liked Rusty's hydro shocks that came with a 3" kit...ran them at 3" and 4.75" on my MJ with great results.

I liked them enough that I got another longer set for the front of my 6.5" XJ (replacing old/too short Rancho 9000s) and these are high on the "get" list for when I boost my stock XJ to 3-4.5"
 
No question, Old Man EMU's. We ran DT's and Rancho's on my Son's 4.5" Rusty's. Both were rough.

When I installed my 4.5" RE6130 on my Cherokee, I went with OME's, what a difference!!

Thanks for all the input guys. I got the chance to get a set of Old Man Emus for 50 bucks (set of 4 with warranty) off a buddy of mine that owns an offroad shop. Think Im gonna go ahead and go with these for now.

Wow!! Great deal!! You will be pleased. I run them on my 4.5" lift, due to many referels from here, and am extremelly pleased.
 
OME all the way!! That's what I have and they are sweet as butter.
