I've been running Bilstein 4600's on my 04 Titan(Stock Height) for almost two years already.Though its not driven everyday of the week,I drive it casually and the shocks and struts have been holding up well.They're a tad stiff,but overall still comfortable for street and highway driving.And they feel stronger than many other Titans I drove with oem.
I put 5100s on my 2007 Titan back in 2016, and they still ride great.
I put 5100s on my GX. Very pleased. I’d call it a nice balance of comfort/sport.
Bilstein are the best bang for the buck.
5100s were inexpensive and an easy upgrade that totally changed the driving character of the truck on and off road.
if you’re on a budget go with ST, BC or even just the tried and true bilstein struts with H&R springs
Bilstein 5100s with proper travel (measure your old ones) then send them into Bilstein and give them your Jeep specs and what you use it for and they will tune them for you for free (you cover the shipping).
If you're just trying to level you could try a set of adjustable height Bilstein shocks. That Rancho looks like it's leaking as you've already described.
I just did the 5100's at 2". I also have a +0 offset wheel (this matters). My 275/70R17's rub the mudflap at full turn when entering a driveway.
“Upgraded” to Bilstein 4600s with 99’ springs not too long ago and they’re way too rough. You can feel just about every bump in the road and it’s extremely jarring and uncomfortable.
