Install the new ones. You will immediately find the old ones right after. Works every time
don't even need to install them, just open the new package so it can't be returned..

Another small thing, a Hooke Road tailgate table. I picked this up on an Amazon lightning deal for $30 and it's not bad quality.
My only complaint is the placement of the mounting holes. If they had spread them one more inch it would have missed the tailgate vent slots completely. Of course I could have drilled two more holes, but it wasn't worth the effort.

A friend bought a west coast LJR, with 38K miles, and I spent several hours yesterday wrenching on it with him. It was such a pleasure to work on something with zero rust. Even the stock locker pump bracket looked basically new. The only negative thing about the Jeep was a 6" Rubicon Express long arm kit, with sagging rear springs. We pulled the front and rear springs, measured for new shocks, and installed Currie 4" springs. While we were in there we also cleaned up the frame, from a hack job someone did on cutting and removing the factory brackets.
On the plus side, the long arm did make it extremely easy to remove and install the springs. They did however make it tough to use jack stands on the rear part of the frame.
Also, used 1.25" rubber cushioned clamps to secure the stock e-brake cables to the upper Savvy control arms. Had to enlarge the holes on the clamps to accommodate the stock bolt. It turned out great and now no more zip ties!

If you can't find the right rear shocks you could add the 1" extenders on the upper mounts. That would get you close.

Even though I already know, every time I see close ups of your undercarriage......
