I would not bother with switching from skyjackers to Bilstein. Save some dough and buy a quality shock that will go for miles.
so just keep skyjackers yea higher end shocks outta my budget atm and acdelco what taking all advice can get I want this one and done

2. make sure your progressive dampers are in good condition and not squished against the lower A arms. I have seen some that are just trashed.
They are in integral part of the IFS torsion bar suspension.




3. I 2nd the OME NitroCharger shocks. Had them on several H3/H3Ts and they are the best all around shocks for our application.
