I have a 09 x 2 door. Want to do the lvl kit and just upgrade shocks while I am under there. I am only going to run 33 and that's it. I will only be mudding and trail riding also a daily driver.
Question time
1) what shocks do you recommend?
2) do I go with a 0-2inch shock?
3) is there anything else I need to know about installing all of this
4) does the leveling kit come with quick disco?
5) are stock springs fine?

I think Thats it. Thanks

1) What shocks do you recommend?
Bilstein, OME, or take-off Rubicon shocks.
2) Do I go with a 0-2inch shock?
Yes.
3) Is there anything else I need to know about installing all of this?
Kind of a difficult question to answer, but the install is pretty straight foward. Make sure to disconnect brakelines & use a torque wrench.
4) Does the leveling kit come with quick disco?
The TF kit doesn't.
5) Are stock springs fine?
Yes.

I ran OME shocks with a leveling kit on my last JK, and the ride quality was poor. It bottomed out going over slight dips in the road, and the brake dive and lean in the corners was worse than factory shocks. I ended up changing them out to Bilstein 5100's, and the ride improved dramatically. I know a lot of people recommend the OME shocks, but I don't think they work that well with factory springs. I'm sure they're great with the firmer OME springs though. But then again, everyone has a different opinion of what makes for a nice ride, so take it for what it's worth. That's just my

I'm going rancho 9000 xl for the adjustability of the shocks.

For the bilstein the 5100 are only 2-3.5 lift. The only ones with the 0 lift are heavy-duty

This is all about the shocks now. I don't know much but since I know it needs to be the 0-2 shocks I am looking for some that are good for a dd as well as trail/mud. I heard old man emu. As well as the blistein. What other ones and what all do I need to look for in shocks

Ahh just wondering. I may be doing the same set up im not sure since mine is the heavier 4 door. When you get it all installed post and update I would like to hear how it works for you.
