Rubicon Shock Swap

[Rubi VT]

So a friend of mine and I bought jeeps at the same time. I bought the JLUR and he bought the Gladiator Rubicon. Before he even picked his up he had the dealer install a lift and 37 on the JT. We were talking last night (about JEEP STUFF - duh!) and I wondered can i take his JT FOX Shocks he took off and put them on my JLUR ? Will they fit ? Are they better (??!!) than the stock JLUR shocks ? Will the ride be firmer ?

Love some feedback. Im thinking of doing it just to see what happens - assuming they will fit.

The fronts will fit fine. The rear are completely different. I did see one guy that got them to work some bad work.

Call Fox? If the fronts are matched well off his JT, maybe they can give you a rear part number to go with them .

I had leftover Fox Rubicon shocks from my JTR lift installation and put the front Fox shocks on my JLR. Bolt right up. The Fox rear shocks won't bolt up but I don't have any weight on the rear so the stockers work just fine.

Thanks for the replys... they are damn nice. Maybe a bracket for the rears.. I'll keep searching.

How was the ride? Any thoughts? Improvement?

The front shocks seem better. The roads in Colorado Springs are terrible so they get a good workout.

One more question - backs dont fit at all ? length?
