## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will these fit a stock 98 jeep cherokee sport, or are they too long? i will be pairing them with the crown heavy duty springs and coils.**
A: These will fit from a 1 inch to 3 inch lift. You maybe be able to get away with it if the new front springs are taller, may want to double check with a representative from rough country.

**Q: Collapsed and extended length**
A: Not sure but had them installed on my 2004 TJ with a 2/2.5 in lift. Rides ok for a daily driver no off reading

**Q: Quantity 2?  Sorry for the stupid question, it shows two shocks in the picture, but nowhere does it say "2". ... this is for my 2000 JK with a 3" lift**
A: 2 shocks come with, however this is for jeep Cherokee XJ, these probably won't mount to your JK

**Q: This fit 2010 ram1500 2wd?**
A: No these will not fit. You will need Part # 23227_A.
