I was just saying I wouldn't spend that much money on Jeep shocks. I did on my Motocross bike when I raced because I got paid. I have yet to ride in anyone's Jeep that I would consider plush riding with any shock. I just buy Rancho RS5000X shocks because they work well enough and cost $200 for all four.And how would you make money on the Jeep?

There's definitely some wisdom here. In my opinion, unless your Jeep is built to compete (i.e. racing with paid sponsorships), I have a hard time believing you're going to see any benefit or difference in performance with a $1600-$1,800 shock package.I was just saying I wouldn't spend that much money on Jeep shocks.

There was a vid on Utube that took 10ish identical equipped JKs and put a different lift kit on each one. They then tested each on the identical course of offroad, large rock, street. The Terraflex used their falcon 3 shocks (on lowest setting) and was decided to be the best all around kit tested. They said the shocks were a large part of the win. I have no personal experience with them. Find that test, I think 3 part series, and see if that helps you decide. I know Fox shocks (not sure which one) was in the test.
Hope this helps.
Probably because the old nice riding yellow shocks were replaced with the harsher black ones. Same goes with the Zone shocks. Their white hydro shocks rode great on the road. They discontinued them for the black stiff riding nitro ones. Go figure.You're down under, so why not look at OME shocks? Their main warehouse is in Melbourne, so you wouldn't have to worry about import duties and taxes.

Yea. I think they did a pretty good job of trying to be fair.Not thinking of this one TrailRecon did with JL's by chance?
