Put these on all four corners of my Jeep CJ7. They ride great! Total game changer! Rides better than my long arm LJ!

Disappointed in seller I contacted them after my shock broke, and they offered me a discounted rate for them to send me another one if they get the broken one back. However it is my only vehicle and I had my boyfriend weld it together so I could still have my jeep to drive so I'm S.O.L. hopefully the other ones I bought are welded all the way through.As you can see in the picture, the weld didn't even penetrate poor quality control.

I had a hard time finding rear shocks for my 2016 f250 crew king bed 6.7 until I located these. I have a 8in fabtech lift with a 5in rear block. These shocks fit perfectly and have the exact measurements of the rear shocks that came with my lift. Smooth ride, easy install, fast shipping. Cannot complain

All 4 shocks are leaking oil...they have only been on for a week and only drove the jeep around the block to test it. I sent emails to the company but no reply. DO not buy!

I put these on my 2003 F350 with a 10 inch lift, the difference is night and day from the Pro Comps that were on it when I bought the truck. Before putting the Bilsteins on, the ride was "squishy" and unstable, now it feels like a whole new truck. Granted my truck has leaf spring suspension, so I wasn't expecting a miracle but I couldn't be happier with the way she rides now! Also, Bilstein's customer service is amazing, I called to find out what shock I needed for my lift and they gave me the part number in less than a minute. If you are questioning wether or not this shock is for you, don't hesistate to give it a shot, I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

got them at $66 each when I needed to replace a set of blown shocks. they are not some blingity high dollar resi shocks (like you need them on your squatted 2wd anyway) but they are so much better than everyones rebranded "white shock" that has dumptruck level valving in it.worth the money, valved stiff enough for on-road without packing/harsh ride.

works great on the ol yota, back to crawlin and some mallin' jk i actually cant drive my pile on the street lol but anyways they work great on my old 86 sas'd yota wheeler, seen a lot of folks rum em on full sized trucks too. dont expect a soft cushioned ride, these are stiff and and are supposed to be that way, if you have a truck expect it to feel like a truck. I dont mind the ride, but i've seen a lot of reviews about the shocks being too stiff, that comes from expecting a luxury ride out of a gas charged shock, you want cushioned floaty feel go with an emulsion shock that will blow out.

I gave four stars not because they are bad in any way, but simply because I have no experience with other premium shocks for comparison. The one thing I can say that might be of value to someone else is that gas charged shocks can be a challenge to install, and will be frustrating if you are used to the simplicity of installing uncharged shocks. These come held partially closed by a strap, and when you cut it, the shock will extend to full length in about one second. This shock took a lot of muscle to compress; more than I could muster with one hand while trying to hold it near the mount and put the bolt through with the other hand. I'm aware of two realistic ways to install: (a) if you can get your suspension to cycle to the right length with the strap still on, install it, then cut the strap, or (b) get a ratchet strap, install one end, cut the nylon holder strap and then use the ratchet strap to compress the shock as needed.General observations: the finish on these shocks is very nice compared to the basic white paint on lesser shocks. Also, they are smaller in diameter than conventional shocks, which looks good and makes them easier to fit into tight spaces. I ordered these in 11" and 14". The 14" have no boot, which is my preference. The 11" came with the boot installed. I removed the boot, and it looks okay, but it has sort of an unfinished edge compared to the shock that was not meant to have a boot.
