new bilstein shocks and ride height on 08JK2dr
 
I've put some Bilstein shocks (heavy duty series) on my 08JK2dr Sahara, and it seems to me that the ride height is a touch lower, at least in the back.

Does anyone know what stock ride height is front/rear on stock tires (the Duelers, I don't recall the tire size offhand)? If I'm lower, can I put in spacers?

Tks

Shocks generally don't determine ride height...the springs do that.

x2 shocks have nothing to do with ride height. They only dampen the bounce from the springs.

You can also get into the specifics of "sprung" and "unsprung" weight that has more to do with ride comfort and smoothness but really doesn't matter to us Jeepers !! LOL
