Strokermjcomanche Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Do you have a lift or is it normal ride height because I have bilstein 46oo series on the front and rear of my Comanche ( normal height) and still have the boxes with part numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling he stocks the CJs and they may be close. Yeah, stock hight for me. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Bilsteins on my Ranger but it might be apple to oranges comparison......I just don't what to be disappointed I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Since the difference is minimal, if you can afford, go with a set of Bilstein 5100's or OME shocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strokermjcomanche Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Long story short: I looked up the Monroe part number for the rear shock at the part store I worked at then I looked through all the applications until I found something that had factory bilsteins as shocks . It was a ranger ( I believe early 2000s if iirc) checked the extended and closed lengths ( spot on ) except when I got it the lower bushings for the rear shocks had a steel sleeve in them so I got a set of bushings and swapped them out . The fronts are easy look up the same year Cherokee( xj ) front number is 24-010450 and rears are 24-196277 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strokermjcomanche Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 As far as ride goes I like the firm ride ( as I think all bilsteins are stiff shocks) but ive had them on several vehicles and they last longer IMO than other shocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeep Driver Posted February 12, 2014 Author Share Posted February 12, 2014 http://mudflaps.com/i-8957341-bilstein-24-002608-4600-series-shock.html I ordered yesterday a full set. Absolute cheapest I found anywhere on the net, $244 to my door, no shipping charge. I was going to order from my4by.com but they were late getting back to me, did not answer their phone, and charged for shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
