Review on Bilstein B8 5100 Shock Absorber - 24-186810 Model by Devin Lee

My Jeep TJ has only done about 85,000 miles but I decided it was time to change the dampers. I put them on and probably expected more. They're comparable to OEM shocks - maybe a little more responsive over small bumps in the road, but about as bumpy and wobbly as the stock when the road gets really bumpy. If I could do it again I would spend the money elsewhere. Mine came with light blue boots which I replaced with black. Fairly easy to install - no need to jack up the jeep or remove the wheels. TIP: Hit the upper rear shock bolts (which are soaked in penetrating oil) first - otherwise they will most likely snap when you try to pry them off. Replace them with stainless steel or grade 8 screws. Good hits but other reviews have made them life changing.
