    hey guys,

    rear end is stock, front has a long travel setup, i have some rancho rs 5000's sitting in my garage from my dad took off his jeep cherokee, would these be better suited for off roading or should i just stick with the stock bilsteins that came with trd package? the ranchos look a little beefier, would just need to swap bushings. appreciate any advice

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    I had some on my 98 once. Not a bad shock IMHO, but seeing how the ones you have are valved for a cherokee they will probably be too stiff.
