    Went with the same shocks on my project 91 YJ. Thank you so much for the helpful video! I was able to get all four done in a couple of hours. I've learned and used many of your videos to fix my YJ. Keep up the excellent work Dale!

    Love your videos. Thanks for the info it makes it a lot easier when you watch someone else do the job first. I have a 1991 YJ I’m about to tear down to the frame and rebuild. It will be my first project of this magnitude. Thanks again

    Question , going to put shocks on my 93 YJ , Bilstein speaks for itself. For the cost of the Quadratec shocks may just be the better deal .Jeep has almost 200K .I would be saving almost $200 . Seen both of your videos . What is your overall pick since you had had both on your jeeps?

  • @MarkOBrienTeaches
    @MarkOBrienTeaches 3 роки тому +1

    :) replaced my suspension a few months ago. you have 8.5 minutes showing how to do it; mine was rusted, and rusted and rusted; a total of 20 hours of heating, hammering, grinding and cussing for 4 springs and 4 shocks on my YJ....and it's not even that rusty.

    • @JeepSolid
      @JeepSolid  3 роки тому +1

      Dang! Yeah. Sometimes it can be a pain. Top nut have me some issues. Contemplated taking cut off wheel too it, but got it after a bit. I think I mentioned that in the video.

  • @davemiller3027
    @davemiller3027 3 роки тому

    Great choice!!!! I put those on my 94 wrangler last year. It’s running a Rancho 2.5” lift with 9000 adjustable ones. The shocks were worn out and bombing the ranch it rode like Sh$t..., the new Hydros are Great shocks for the $$$. It rides so good now.

    • @matthewsipe8905
      @matthewsipe8905 3 роки тому

      Do those shocks actually ride well or was it just better then the old ones??
      I have RC and they suck..

      I thank they are better quality than my old ones that were made in 96. I’m really happy with them. We use our Jeep on the ranch for tones of chores to running to town to haul 400 pounds of feed every two weeks.

    How did you release the lock on the shocks so they expand? Mine were shipped fully compressed and I can't figure out how to extend them.
    Update: found out they aren't locked, they just don't expand by themselves like every other shock I've messed with.

      @chriss.3476 3 роки тому

      Did you figure it out? I'm doing mine in a couple of days and the Jeep is at another house, so was looking to see what size they were so I'm not taking every tool there.

    I kinda don't like these videos where they don't take a little test drive and give their opinion on the difference between the old shocks and the new.
