Skyjacker M95

Anyone running these shocks or have experience with them? Look like a good monotube shock. With a $55 mail in rebate the total per shock right now through auto anything would be $63.20 per shock.

Where did you order them from. Best I found so far was $333. That's the biggest reason I haven't looked at them much, too pricey.

I eBay'd mine, here's what I got.
Bilstein 33-187297 Shock Absorber.... $137
Bilstein 24-186025 Shock Absorbe......$144

$281, I was off a little. Also, my truck is a 2004, make sure they fit. A little searching should get you a good deal on them.

Thank you very much! I will definitely check it out. Seem like the best way to go if I can get the right price.

Late response, but yes I have them and love them. I had a long call with a Skyjacker engineer before buying them. The m95 was designed after the Bilstein 5100 but they improved the sealing system since they knew that was the primary failure point. Their warranty is awesome also for a lifetime. Love mine. They talked me out of switching to Fox 2.0s (just for the stickers......and only have a 1 year warranty)
