I am wondering if anyone has a take on a better shock for the Rubicon. It is worth mentioning that it will never be lifted.
Some of my upcoming trips will have mile and mile of rough washboard. I found that the stock shocks in my JK quickly became overheated and then had a lot of fade.
I switched to OME gas shock, which seemed to be much better, but when the Jeep was not loaded up, the ride was too harsh.
I have seen that OME has an adjustable OP-51 shock with remote reservoir, but I have heard the protection plastics pop off at the slightest touch.
Much of what I have seen in an adjustable shocks wants at least a 2.5 inch lift, which I have no plans for.
Any ideas?
