I just recently installed a rubicon suspension on my JLU sport and installed a 1 inch spacer with the mopar LCA on the front and 3/4 spacer on the rear. This leveled me out perfectly and gave me a little over a 2.25 lift.
I just came across someone selling 392 fox shocks for $150 but before I jump on them I wanted to see if there would be any issues with length of the shocks as well as quality of the shocks compared to the all red rubicon shocks I currently have? Will they provide any improvement to the ride?

I would get them.

The red shocks have been reported to be leaking of late. Don't know if its a quality control issue or what. The Fox shocks are a better product IMO.

Since the 392's compressed lengths are longer, you will need to add some longer bump stops. I recommend the Metalcloak Durospring (they're supposed to be about an inch longer than OEM)

Will they provide any improvement to the ride?
Yes, I have a set on my stock-ish height JLR. They aren't the best shocks, but impossible to beat for the $350 I paid.
