The Billstein shocks he got on made for a nice ride.
Pros: nice ride
Vehicle:
Dodge RAM
I don't. Based in the research I did when I lifted mine, there is no reason to run dual shocks with modern shocks. I don't remember where/what different shock mount I bought and paired it with a single Bilstein.
the only real issues ive had are shock failures (upgraded to bilstein)
Vehicle:
BMW
Meanwhile, the new shocks and springs really made a difference while driving. Noticeably smoother than before, less noise and clunking.
Pros: noticeably smoother, less noise
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
The Bilsteins for the rear aren't that expensive. They are a little bit firmer than stock but the increase in wheel and body control are worth it.
Pros: increased wheel control, increased body control
Cons: firmer than stock
Vehicle:
Saab
I put bilstein 4600s on. Theyre good relatively inexpensive shocks.
Pros: good, inexpensive
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
stock height 4600's are a big improvement as well. The valving is the same as 5100's, but for non-lifted vehicles. My youngest son just updated his old Inherited H2 with 4600's, that's how I found out about the valving - he called Bilstein! Also, his shocks have the zinc finish, which is a nice anti-corrosion upgrade.
Pros: big improvement, zinc finish, anti-corrosion
I've run 5100 Bilsteins on my 2010 JKU Rubicon and again on my 2020 Gladiator Rubicon. Nothing but praise. Cost effective and just an excellent, all around shock.
Pros: cost effective, excellent all-around
Vehicle:
Jeep

Pros: better road manners
Vehicle:
Toyota FJ Cruiser
