Which shock? Stock height.

Would Bilstein or Eibach be best.

For what use? How do you like your ride?

I got the Mopar 2" with the fox 2.0 socks for my '22 rubi diesel, added 1" spacers to the front and fox 2.0 steering stabilizer. Measured it all out after it was done, was about 3" lift, but it'll settle some. Kept the same 33" ATs for now. It rides nice, but the lift springs are progressive so they're a little squishy if running heavy

Mainly on road. I tow a small rv with it quite often. Have Timbren bump stops. They help. OE shocks are weeping. Time for them to go.

Bilstein is the more popular choice. Eibach tend to run on the stiffer side. "Best" is very subjective as everybody perceives ride quality a bit different.

How many miles on the stock shocks? Can usually pick up minty OEM take offs on FB marketplace for easily in the $100 range or so.

Bilstein are firm too. Are Eibach firmer? Are the both digressive ?

Are Eibach firmer?

Maybe but I only have experience with Bilsteins. I know @ShadowsPapa ran some Eibach's on his Overlands and was not happy with them. Heard it also with a few others.

I felt the road "imperfections" more harshly.

Close to thirty. Just tow 4000 lbs sometimes and it has traded shocks! Need a step above OEM. Good idea though.

OEM's are hit or miss. I installed a set of like new take off OEM Diesel Rubicon shocks and have been happy with them so far. Have a set of Bilsteins 5100's on the shelf but will probably run the OEM take off's until whenever they wear out as I do like the ride with them.

Bilstein 5100 is the answer…

I put a set of Bill Stein's 5100 on the OVERLORD.

Rides a bit firmer.

William builds a nice set of shocks.

I’m looking at the 5100’s.

Looked at OEM. Just no luck with those. I’m lucky to get 30000 out of them.

Well, it is a sample of one, but I get where the feeling is coming from.
