  1. SDi E-CLiKs….Let the fun begin!

    I actually thought I had a wiring issue or interference because the shocks were “buzzing” when there is ignition power of any kind. Turns out that is totally normal as it’s the active valving and it changes tone with softness/stiffness changes.
  2. SDi E-CLiKs….Let the fun begin!

    So everything arrived and I finished up the install Friday but only put about 5 min of drive time on them before leaving it behind for the weekend. I can say on our crappy uneven country roads it is a lot more stable, less side to side tossing around, potholes (Ohio potholes) are minimized, and...
  3. SDi E-CLiKs….Let the fun begin!

    Same thing I thought but honestly, it is still really nice.
  4. SDi E-CLiKs….Let the fun begin!

    Yeah, they said the knurled ring is reserved for the "pro" version that adds in additional customization features that the active one does not have. I was a bit frustrated by the fact that the website even said it came with the Active version but more than one person there said the site is...
  5. Diesel - Will i regret regearing to 4.88?

    Just saw you are diesel as well, maybe snag someone’s 4:10 takeoffs if they have them….
  6. Diesel - Will i regret regearing to 4.88?

    I see about the same mileage going from 4:10 to 4:88 but it’s a better driving experience. It shifts nicer and maintains 7th and 8th on the highway. Although you are staying in the higher gears, you are turning a higher RPM which eats into it maintaining the higher gear. You might be...
  7. SDi E-CLiKs….Let the fun begin!

    So I have some of the stuff installed, ran into an issue with the harness, it was made incorrectly and 2 of the plugs were “swapped” and the one that needed to be on the long set of wires was on the short set and vice versa. My replacement harness is being shipped out now apparently. Also...
  8. SDi E-CLiKs….Let the fun begin!

    Just arrived, need to work on the install Now!
  9. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    No, I didn’t but I’m running Mopar beadlocks as well as a 1.5” spacer. They have a lower backspacing that stock wheels so I should be ok. Part of the ordering process was giving them the specs of the lift as well as the wheel/Tire combo (so the shocks can be set properly), and they didn’t seem...
  10. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    Oh definitely, that was a concern I had as well but after seeing the work they do on OEM rebuild parts, OE parts in general, and their SXS/motorcycle racing suspension background, I am hopeful they are extremely well built. I think I am sacrificing a little shock length on them for my Rock...
  11. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    Pulled the trigger on the E-Clik Active version, gets the automatic adjustable shock system but cant customize out f the box. I was told if I wanted to later, the "Pro" features can be added. I am assuming its a software upgrade and a cost. Hope I have it by this coming weekend....we shall see.
  12. Electric Adjusting Shock Question

    Reviving this dead thread, I actually just placed my order for the SDI E-Clik Active version this past weekend. It ended up cheaper for these using a military discount than Bilstein 8100 bypass shocks with a discount, slightly more than the Fox 2.5 DSCs but way less than the Fox 3.0s. They...
  13. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    I have been watching videos and reading reviews all afternoon, looks like great shocks. I don’t need tuning so I’d want just the Active shocks. Actually not a need at all, it’s a WANT!
  14. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    I was actually intrigued after you posted it and they seem to be quality built shocks. Motor trend had a great write up and I see lots of other positive posts on other jeep pages talking about how great the setup was.
  15. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    Appreciate the input but I’ve never heard of SDI….. With zero knowledge of them I’d have a tough time dropping $3k+ on something I’ve never heard of. I’ll have to do some digging to see what’s out there on them.
  16. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    Well, I was considering the Falcon aDAPT shocks as well but they have eliminated themselves by being a 7 month wait based on the email I just received from them. It’s too bad, seems like a good concept that nobody seems to be able to test out….
  17. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    Yeah, that is where Accutune comes into play, valved for you right out of the box and then you play with the adjustments. Also one of the reasons I’m looking at Blistein, they have both compression and rebound adjustments and their adjustments are full hard to full open soft. I’d hope I...
  18. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    Yeah, watched those and appreciate the input they gave but I struggle to give 100% credit to YouTubers since most are paid to run something on their jeep. That is why I turned to here, hoping someone not “given” these shocks could provide input. Im sure they are good but want real world, non...
  19. Bilstein 8100 Bypass Shocks?

    So I’m looking into a shock upgrade from my Fox 2.0 shocks, looking at the Falcon 3.5 Adapt, Fox 2.5 DSC and then the Bilstein 8100 Bypass shocks. I’m really leaning towards the Bilstein shocks because of the compression and rebound adjustability as well as being a bypass type shock. Anyone...
  20. Clayton 2.5 Ride Right Lift Questions

    I used the Teraflex leveling kit in my 2.5" Clayton lift and it was nearly dead on with just the 1' spacer (didn't need both spacers), maybe 1/4 inch of rake but it wasn't noticeable at all. If I had used the full leveling kit (both spacers) I think it would have been too much.
