They recommended rough country shocks so they lost my confidence.Why dont you try more locally available "tried and tested"? I think I remember your local 4x4 club or 4x4 shop in Athens recommending different shocks over the Rancho's before you did your lift.
Its the way of the internet information world we live in that for every recommendation and praise there is at least another that comes out and tell you the opposite, trouble is we only seem to notice the latter comments after we have committed.
What is the best recommended shock for your TJ and driving conditions in your part of the world, and I personally would start there unless I could import cheaper from US.
Mine came in today too, but I’m at work all night.Rear Black Max B8518 shocks showed up today. Confirmed, on the box, that these can be run either can up or down. Measurements are true to the specifications. Front shocks are being shipped direct from the manufacturer.

Did you get both front and rear?Mine came in today too, but I’m at work all night.
Yes. I ordered through Summit Racing and one package came from Texas and the other from Nevada. One was fronts and one was rears, but I don’t remember which one came from which place.Did you get both front and rear?
Awesome! I'm anxious to hear what you think. I haven't even got a shipping notification for the front yet.Yes. I ordered through Summit Racing and one package came from Texas and the other from Nevada. One was fronts and one was rears, but I don’t remember which one came from which place.
I can’t remember…why do you need yours to be can up? Is it because the axle is rotated to fix driveshaft alignment?All the number crunching worked out. The shock is a perfect fit for my rear setup. 4 inch up travel and 4.7 inch down.

Fortunately they come that way. For me, I needed it because of the Savvy skid. Rear is rotated due to that.I can’t remember…why do you need yours to be can up? Is it because the axle is rotated to fix driveshaft alignment?
I have been patient for 4 entire days! Isn't it that enough?Patience is a virtue. Sadly, I have none!
Definitely reminds me of the old Zone shocks. But it's clear these are better made!I'm guessing they will be on par with the Zone hydro shocks.................................................................................................................................. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
