I just ordred the Bilstein struts. Thanks again for helping me. Now the next question, do I install the blue dust sleave or not?

Blue dust sleeve???? Any reason why you didn't go with OME other than the price difference??

its a WK thing, you wouldnt understand LOLOriginally Posted by 07JeepXK
as for the whole bilstein/OME discussion... im learning and seeing more that the bilsteins are holding up and are the strut/shock of choice for a WKer just starting out lifting their rig or daily driving their rig. personally being as my current bilsteins have maybe 20k on them and one half ass wheeling trip on them- im planning on running them with a set of OME MD springs. why MD? i daily driver her, im not adding skids galore or any other extra weight- just want a solid and balanced ride. according to kolak, bilsteins are more of a performance shock, where as an OME shock is more off-road oriented with a higher extended length than the bilstein.
