Bilstein 5100's ........... But I am a little Bias I Ran them on my YJ, TJ, An I have a set waiting to be installed on my XJ when I install my new lift !

yep high quality vs crap shock. you pay for what you get.

2KXJJEEP

i wouldnt call the N2.0's crap shock but there just not as high quality a the bistein...but they will get the freakin job done if ur on a budget like most of us r....

My N2.0 are awesome shocks for the price and i couldnt afford bilsteins but my N2.0s get the job done

Bilsteins are nice if you can afford them. I couldn't. Never felt like I bought an inferior product with RC, though.

bilstein 9300 blackhawks. everyone is going to tell you what shock they run unless you give us more information. there is a lot to consider when buying shocks

Is it worth the price difference to go from 5100's to 5150's? Daily driver, trails, some rocks, no mud if possible.

xjbeadlocks

yes they are compared to bilsteins

Every product made by RC is inferior to many other quality companies out there. RC is the bottom feeders (yes they have gotten better) of the suspension market. This is why they are so cheap!

for a dd no I wouldnt say its worth it.

Tom95YJ

For a trail rig yes, For a DD that goes wheeling on the weekends the price difference will not be justified .

Get the 5100's !

the only difference is you get a tiny remote resivoir. ive had 5150's heat up to the point you cant touch them from just rockcrawling.

the remote resi just keeps them a little bit cooler, keeping them more effective from harder use. with each shock cold, there is no difference.

Thanks for the info.
