Made to fail in 30,000miles,just like Monroe's junk.Better off getting Rancho 17505's with the lifetime replacement warranty which you may never need since they will last a long time.

OME or Rancho are about the only 2 I'd ever consider.

Yea, go with OME or rancho SHOCKS.

Our zj has the stock shocks after 165k miles. Still rides nice and smooth, much better than the stock kj's did. Guess that front axle really makes all the difference in the ride. :roll:
