I also bought front shocks absorbers from autodoc for £70 each Bilstein B4 (really good brand)
For the really nice ride part, I got the Bilstein 5160 shocks. Install was a bit goofy, but manageable. They really make a huge difference compared to the rough country shocks I had on there. I fly into bumpy areas just to feel how nicely they dampen.
I've been really happy with my Bilstein 5100 shocks and OME heavy load springs with all of my added armor weight. After I picked up a trackbar correction kit and got my geometry right the rig rides better than any new truck!
I just put a set of Bilsteins on my 2016 GMC Acadia, and oh man, what a difference!
Dobbys MRR work well but they are the best for overlanding set ups that add weight to the LC.
I think the billstein 5100 and 5150 are great. After the first set I bought, I've run nothing else.
Bilstein 4600 for a stock road Jeep. Not quite as squishy as a nitro shock like OME, but a significant upgrade over stock in both comfort and control.
Bilsteins have always been my go to. Nice and Sturdy at high speeds. Worst shocks I’ve had on my jeep were rough country
I put in 5100’s and wished I had spent the extra few hundred bucks for the 6112’s.
I can relate. My B16's made strange noises from day 1. Then after a few months one of the rears collapsed. I gave up and just put the original stock shocks/springs back on.
