Best Shocks for WD21 (95) with a 2.5" suspension lift...

[WD21inKenya]

I'm carrying parts from the US overseas - so literally weighing out my options here for my 95 Diesel Pathfinder 4X4...

 

I've been seeing some pretty big variances in both price and lengths of shocks. I'm not going for a big lift, likely a 2.5" Superlift UCAs and some springs that add about 2.5" in the back (TBD) - but I have two questions:

 

1. Will my stock shocks still be an adequate length (even if they are a bit inferior in ride)? Or are they going to over-extend or have some unexpected issues?

2. As shipping weight is a major issue, is there a greater concern in this size lift between front or back shocks? - I'm thinking I could bring 2 over with me, but would need to leave the other two as stock or buy lower quality ones abroad.

 

Any other recommendations in terms of brand (there is a major price difference I see)? I drive very long distances over very rough roads, so whatever it is will take a beating.

 

Thanks!

With a lift your front shocks will be fine but your rears will need to be longer to accomplish full suspension travel.

I've been thinking about doing the same to my 92 but was looking at Rough country UCAs. Full kit has everything you need for 400$ for 4x4 though I am not sure on shipping weight
