Jeep parts reviews

I have 5100’s on my XJ & they are definitely an improvement. Stiffer on road & great off-road, definitely an upgrade over stock or rough country I previously had.

I have the 4600s on my XJ with stock ride height. They absolutely transformed the ride around town and handling at highway speeds. The biggest thing I noticed was there was an off-ramp I used to be scared to take higher than 50MPH that I could take at 70MPH after the upgrade. After the upgrade I used to run over potholes and speed bumps with abandon because the new shocks just took it. I've had them for about 175K miles and only recently have I started to think that it's time to replace them.

I’m not driving an xj but my wj has 4.5” lift and I put bilstein 5100’s on it shortly after the lift. I had whatever shocks that came with the initial lift kit but they were junk. It’s on short arms so the suspension is pretty abrupt and violent on big bumps. The 5100’s are nice if you’re looking for heavy hauling and fire roads.

I use them and really like them, and I have only an upcountry lift, so close to stock. if anything they're a bit on the firm side, so they are def more stable, controlled, and connected. They don't totally remove the bumps, but I much prefer them to the monroes.

Love my Bilstiens, was night and day vs the factory style shocks even though they were only 3yrs old. Biggest difference is on gravel roads especially with a heavy load.

Bought a Stant from RockAuto and it has been going strong for over 5 years now.

The Motorcraft thermostat sounds promising though, never have an issue with genuine ford parts.

Rebuilt my Jeep YJ Font end and brakes worked fine. Dropped Jeep down off the Jack and brakes went to the floor... No leaks just dead booster.

My jeep did the same thing. Turned out to be my head gasket.

One time I had the oil bug bite (keera) and I decided to get the best oil. Castrol (I don't remember the number) but it was 340 AED for a gallon. I poured it into the engine and it felt good. That weekend took it for a desert drive and during one of the breaks, the entire oil just leaked out of the main seal. The oil was so good that the engine didn't have the tolerances to hold it back.
