Shocks on a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Reviewed by Marshall S (Blue Ridge, VA) Reviewed for a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee — Mar 13, 2013 12:59 PM
Shocks made an instant improvement in ride. Of course any shock would have been an improvment but skyjacers do ride very well. It would have been nice to have the bushings preinstalled. I had to find a press to install the front shock bushings. Over all a good investment.
Great for the money!

Great shocks compared to my old wore out Tuff Countrys. I've had these on my truck for about a week now and have noticed a huge difference in dampening. My truck no longer bounces over every little bump. Excellent product and how can you beat a lifetime warranty?
Good shocks
Reviewed by Richard S (ROBERTSON, WY) Reviewed for a 2004 Jeep Wrangler — Jan 11, 2013 10:28 AM
They took the sway out of the high speed driving and stiffened the off road ride. I am very pleased with their performance and feel much more comfortable with highway driving. Installation was a pain. Putting the rubber bushings on the shocks was difficult. I had to use a vice but at 15 degrees, they were rather stiff.

Hi, These shocks extend far enough for them to work with up to a 6" lift. It sounds like you might needs something that covers 7-10" lift range.

Great question. No sir, shock aborbers don't provide any lift. You need a lift or leveling kit to get that Ranger into the air. Check these lifts out: http://www.autoanything.com/suspension-systems/20A50625A1.aspx

i have a 2010 jeep grand cherokee laredo 3.7 liter. The specific model of these shocks (N8088) are stated to be able to fit my jeep by numerous other major websites, but none state a difference between front and rear sets. Only 1 site did, and it was the same exact model number for the front and rear. Is this actually the case? i want to be 100% sure before i buy.... Eric

After using a readylift kit (1.5" rear, 2.25" front), could I use the longer shock (for 3-4" lift) instead of a stock size with the shock extender?

It looks like we only offer these shocks for the 4WD Yukon models and will not bolt in place. We may however offer a set of shock absorbers for your Yukon. Feel free to give us a call.

You dont have to have a lifted truck to install these shock aborbers. Just select the 0-1" range shocks. We consider them a stock height application.

How to measure lift height
I bought My 2001 Ram 2500 Cummins and it has a lift but dont know what height. Is there any measuring I can do to determin right height so I can order the right set of shocks...Thanks

That is a tricky one due to the fact that suspension components gradually wear causing the truck to sag. Lets say someone installed a 6" suspension lift kit on your truck years ago, the springs could have weakened a little bit, giving you a 5" lift. If the truck still has the original shocks that came with the lift kit, you can remove one and take measurements of extended and collapsed lengths, mounting type and eyelet size. Remember to always have all four shocks installed if you plan on driving the truck though. If you are still unsure, you can determine the extended length of shock that you will need by raising the truck and allowing the suspension to droop, at which point you can measure the shock mounting points. Measure the mounting points again with the truck on its wheels and allow for at least 2" of travel to get the collapsed height.

No sir, the shock absorbers do just that, absorb shocks and jolts from the road. Your springs provide the lift.
