Default Bilstein 5125 shocks for sale

I have a pair (2) of Bilstein 5125 shocks for sale. They are used with minor cosmetic scratches and nicks from being used on the shock bodies.

The shafts and seals are in perfect condition, they are like new.
The rubber in the eyelets look like new.

They are 14 inch stroke.

34.5 extended
20.5 compressed.

These have eyelets on both ends, not a stud like the factory front xj shocks use.
I upgraded to fox bypass shocks so these are useless to me now.

120 shipped to the lower 48 states or 100 picked up locally. Im in Hesperia Ca.

PM me if you're interested and ill send you pics of them.

Your specs say that your XJ has a 4" lift. Any idea if these would work on an XJ with 3.5" of lift and factory (more-or-less) suspension configuration? Thanks.

14" travel is quite a bit, provided you'll also need to use something to be able to run eyelits top and bottom. With the right amount of bumpstop you'd be fine im sure..but you'd be better off measuring and finding out before bottoming out a nice set of shocks.

OK, thanks for the info. If I get time to get some measurements and they'll work I'll get back in touch.

Xj88 is right. I ran a shock mounts thru my floor to run these.
14 inches of travel is really nice though
Providing your driveline won't bind.

There is some over spray on them which can be taken off with liquor and a rag. I'll take it off before I ship them.

You can see that they do not leak at all and the shafts are in perfect condition.

Not sure. That's why I posted compressed and extended lengths. Just measure your eyelets at compression and full extension and see if the shocks would fit your application.
20.5 compressed
34.5 extended

Heres what I thought was the best one. Here is the link to my photobucket account with more pictures in it of the shock hoops.

They are just a home made version of these http://www.ruffstuffspecialties.com/.../STOWER12.html
