We are sorry that your experiencing some issues with our products. Please get in touch with our customer service, 318-388-0816, to let us know how we can help correct this issue.

Thank you Skyjacker for reaching out to me. I took care of the slight bow issue and I'm still pleased with the comfortable and stable ride from the Skyjacker lift kit. My 2021 jlur had the stock wedge shaped upper isolators that don't work correctly with some/most aftermarket springs. I dropped the front axle again and removed the stock upper spring isolators and put Rock Krawler' neutral upper spring isolators and now the springs sit straight. I'm not here to bash any company, just compliment all the different companies that make and keep the Jeep community going strong!

Glad to hear you were able to fix the issue and that you are happy with our products!! @@MrTurbo64

Awesome! Thank you for being so supportive! Let us know how you like your kit when you get it installed!

I have the 2 1/2" jlur kit with black max shocks and the ride feels nice like stock but more firm. Also, have rockjock front adjustable control arms and just received Rock Krawler front track bar. Thank you Skyjacker for the great lift kit!

@@MrTurbo64 Thank you for trusting and supporting our products on your rig!!

You don’t understand how this shock technology works. Do some research before dismissing them.

Don't recommend these sorry guys, but honestly review

thank you so much for giving us the chance to get it right for you!

thank you so much. the support means the world to us.

thank you so much!

Yes they will fit.

Fingers crossed!

Since Black MAX has a Foam Cell, being filled 100% with high temp shock fluid, they can be mounted either Up or Down per customer preference.

Black MAX uses Foam Cell & vehicle-specific valve tuned and Nongas pressurized. Bilstein 5100’s are High-Pressure Gas Pressurized shocks, which makes them about 30% firmer than Black MAX (Nongas pressurized). Skyjacker M95 monotubes are comparable to Bilstein 5100, both being high-pressure gas-pressurized, so Bilstein 5100 high gas pressure will give a much firmer ride than Black MAX. Hope this answers your question. If not, feel free to give our customer service a call: 318-388-0816

Awesome! Let us know how you like them!

@@SkyjackerSuspensions so far so smooth but I had to change the bottom "dowel pin" because it was too short. I took the old ones from the old shocks and put them in the new shocks and fit fine.

Shocks have several internal valve discs that flex up & down as the shock shaft moves up & down and get weaker as the flex up/down over time. Aftermarket shocks, as a general rule, used on highway with light off-road can last up to 75,000 miles. However, the internal valve discs usually begin weakening at 50,000 miles. Hardcore offroading like rock crawling & heavy offroading significantly reduce longevity & shocks can start to break down at 30,000 miles of less depending on how often and how hard they are used. The shock's internal valve discs weaken over time and become more flexible due to the millions of up/down cycles, causing reduced shock performance and reduced response to absorb as new. Most likely the reason you mention, “Off-road it feels like the shocks aren’t working properly” is due to the internal valve discs being 30 years old with millions of cycles combined with the shock fluid losing its’ viscosity over the 30 years. The internal valve discs have used up most of their life, so I’m confident the shock is not functioning as new shocks would that would have stiffer valve discs and fresh oil at 100% viscosity. For 73 GMC K20 with 4” lift, I would suggest Skyjacker Nitros N8051 Front and N8053 Rear if truck is used 50% offroad & 50% highway use OR Black MAX B8551 Front and B8553 Rear is truck is used 25% Offroad & 75% highway use. I hope this answered your question. If if didn't please give us a call!

Haha! Right! Glad you found it helpful, though!!

He definitely is!

Yes! That jeep is going be a fun series with great tips and tricks from Dave!

It doesn't. Look up reviews on these.

What's the year and model of the truck? And typically, our spacers are designed to fit the bone stock factory vehicle, and we couldn't say it would fit other companies' springs. Feel free to call our customer service at 318-388-0816, and we can get you squared away.

Our Hydro series shock would be the most cost-effective! If you have any specific questions feel free to call our tech support.

Why? just ordered a set .😊 What exactly sucks?

Great question! The steering stabilizer has an entirely different internal design than the Nitro 8000s. I hope this helped clarify the different mounting requirements.

How is off roading and having fun racist

It depends on what type of vehicle you have and your usage. We recommend our Black MAX shock if you use a light-duty truck, and if you have a heavy-duty truck, we recommend our M95 Monotube shock. If you have any more questions and want to speak to one of our tech support, feel free to call us at 318-388-0816.

@@SkyjackerSuspensions so I was doing my research and I read a bunch of forums that hydraulic is always going to deliver a smother softer ride due to it not returning and instead letting the coils work while the gas charged are compressed and give a much stiffer I think you said for towing and heavy duty stuff n95 is better, because it has charged. I don’t tow at all. i daily my truck and I’m actually looking to have a smooth riding truck. So I’m really interested in the black max. Would that shock be my best choice for daily and smooth rides ? Hydraulic ?

@@6nzchencho752 We apologize for just now responding to your comment. If you want a smooth ride, we recommend using a gas-powered shock on heavier-duty trucks, as hydraulic shocks will give you too much bounce. If you have a light-duty truck, then the BlackMax shock would be the way to go unless you do a lot of towing with that.

@@SkyjackerSuspensions got it thank you so much !

We are sorry that your experience with our company has not met your expectations, and we take customer satisfaction very seriously and are genuinely sorry for the inconvenience. Please get in touch with us at marketing@skyjacker.com to let us know how we can make this up to you

This sounds a bit dramatic. What exactly does "wrong parts sent" mean? Was it truly horrible or did they just offer a solution you felt was insufficient? Did you send the parts back for exchange and if not...why? Are the welds horribly looking or judt not perfect looking? Please elaborate. Thanks

Hello, sorry, after a year, do you recommend them for the XJ?

@@arielvela4262 I have been very pleased with them. I would recommend them. I still have them and they still ride great.
