Review on Bilstein B8 5100 Shock Absorber - 24-186810 Model by Joe Nieves

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Doesn't matter! for shocks, struts and suspension

I used these on a 2006 Jeep TJ with 32" tires and a 2" lift. I have used twin tube shock absorbers in the past and experienced very poor highway performance. With these new monotubes, the ride is completely DIFFERENT in a different way. Handling is much more like a 'car' (although it's a Wrangler). I found it straightened out quickly after hitting a speed bump or pothole. They are well made and the only downside is that I wish I had switched to them sooner!

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Sad hardware
