Pretty much junk: shock absorbers

These shock absorbers are of very poor quality. Obviously, this is probably the same shock as most other vendors in the same price range. I doubt the valves here are any different than those on the Monroe or Gabriel which you can buy at your local auto parts store. Bushings are not installed, so you need to pay attention to a few points when installing them. Even the sticker is not stuck on the shock absorber which is very bad.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Noisy and customer service is non-existent!

Installed the kit 2 months ago to replace Bilsteins with a stock 04 Grand Cherokee Overland. Ride is not bad BUT they are loud! I can hear every movement of the jeep's front shock absorbers. Not hub noise, but internal pressure noise that changes with the slightest movement of the suspension. I called Skyjacker, the support service is practically non-existent - after explaining the problem they said "Never heard of it." No further help was offered, no attempt was made to understand the problem…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Crumpled

I'm so disappointed they don't have the required bushings and washers to install. I was forced to use the old ones because the mechanic had already lifted the Jeep up in the air and installed the rear shock absorbers.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old
