| I have broken 11 Bilstine shocks on simple situations, and am ready to swap out to super lift shocks. I used the 5150's now they don't even stand behind their product like before. They were to redesign them so that they don’t break so easily, haven't seen anything come out just yet.
Here is a link:

| If you have broken 11 shocks I think there is something else wrong. They do have have the thread on bushing that makes a weak link over other shocks, but they shouldn't be breaking. Next time out wheeling you need to flex it out and check for binding. | |

when you use them as bump stops or limit straps that don't last long. | |
