I'm looking into the 2.5" teraflex cool lift and I want bilstein 5100 for the shocks. Good or bad? Tell me your thoughts because it's bilstein or fox not sure which one to choose!

I'm running Bilstein 5100's on my RK lift. Great riding shock. The TF9550's are also a good monotube shock. Ran them with my TF 2.5 BB. Rode better than stock IMO.

If you have extra cash, go with Kings or Fox.

I have bilstein on my Jk and love them but don't have anything to compare them too.

But.. on my last TJ within 3 weeks I tried 3 different shocks: Stock, Rough Country 2.0 and Bilstein 5100.

Rough Country was horriable! Stock was ok and Bilstein was better than stock. There are better shocks on the market but bilstein is a good all round shock
