A while back I installed a 2.5" coil spring lift, but I used shock extensions at the time since they were still new. The ride is a good bit stiffer, and I had a guy who installs lift kits all the time tell me that I really need beefier shocks to better match up with the stiffer coil springs. He said this would improve the ride.
So, theoretically....are the stock sport shocks that came on my jku too weak to take a lot of the stiffness out of the after market springs? I know that jeep matches up springs and shocks from factory for a reason. Seems like it makes sense that a beefier shocks would dampen the road noise a little better, thus not translating all those bumps and such to the stiffer springs...
IDK, just some thoughts and looking for someone who knows the anwer. Thanks!
