Front shocks for rc 6" lift

Hey yall
I'm getting the 6" rc lift for my fj for christmas, it has an ARB front bumper replacement with stock suspension in the front. I've heard that it will start sagging, does anyone know of a good and relatively cheap shock replacement I can get. I was lookin at the bilstein 5100s, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Front shocks for rc 6" lift

The RC 6" just uses a spacer on the front CO. Whatever sag you have before will be the same after the lift just 6" higher. Both Icon and Radflo make adjustable coil overs. I am running the Icon's and love them.

Radflo offers coil overs for the RC 6" lift in both 2.0 and 2.5 versions.

Re: Front shocks for rc 6" lift

Holly cow batman!

Just got back from Disney with my family and waiting in my foyer were a securely boxed up set of Radflo's.

I couldn't believe how well built, and high quality they are! I have a pile of R/C box's (6inch) and it is ready to go hopefully next weekend.

Thanks to several people's feed back, I chose the radflo over the icon's for no other reason then cost. There was basically nothing but positive remarks for both, but with the radflo's I have several plus hundred dollars left to purchase other additions.

I have the coils setting out next to my desk next to my M16 and can't make up my mind which I like looking at more !!

Radflo's were easy to purchase, delivered quickly and will post more when installed.
