Hello,
I wanting to get a new front bumper w/ winch and rear bumper. Will the weight of the bumpers and winch change the way my Jeep sits and drives? Do I need to get aftermarket shocks?

Thanks,
Brock

Your shocks will be Ok, but your front coil springs won't like the extra weight. Might need to put a coil spring lift spacer in the front to level it back up.

We haven’t noticed any difference in my wife’s JK. Here are couple of pictures of her setup. Since then she has a lift and new shocks, but it seemed fine with the stock suspension.
