Has anyone tried something more heavy duty than the OEM shocks and springs?

I've got a 2001 TJ Sport Auto with 4.0 with 187,000 miles. It's in need of new springs/shocks.
Reaching out to see if anyone has replaced there OEM springs/shocks with something a little more heavy duty. I'm not interested in a lift, jut wanting something a little more HD than stock if possible.

I will be replacing the shocks with Rancho RS5000X

Thanks everyone

Not sure what you mean by heavy duty. Are you thinking the OEM springs fatigued too quickly? Your rig is at least 15 years old. Stock springs do well for how long they have been holding up your Jeep. Are you wanting to haul a lot of gear in the back? Is your TJ on the heavier side?

1” H&R springs are a solid replacement choice.
