Uses Innovative Foam-Cell Technology. The SkyJacker Black MAX Rear Shock Absorber makes use of advanced foam-cell technology to further improve your Jeep Cherokee XJ’s suspension performance.

Review shared from SkyJacker Hydro 7000 Rear Shock Absorber for 1 to 3-Inch Lift (84-01 Jeep Cherokee XJ)
Nice Ride
Definitely improved my ride; and they look great! Wish they came assembled; as we had to grind/round the edges of the pins to avoid tearing the bushing

Not Great, Not Terrible
Easyish install if you have grease, a vice and a mallet to press in the plastic bushings, great price. Improvement over my worn factory shocks in the front. Rear - after replacement the rear almost hits harder than before on crappy Colorado Springs city roads. It's like something is lose, except nothing is loose. Still chasing that mystery.

Skyjacker black rear shock
Bought these new in the box. Arrived in great shape assemble before install was simple. Install took longer then it should have not because of the shocks but because of others shoddy work.

Excellent Ride for the price
Honestly, I have these shocks installed all around on all 4 corners of the jeep, and they ride AMAZING. I was worried at first with buying a "budget" shock, but read other reviews online and decided to take the risk. I am glad I did! I have lifted many jeeps in my day, and the ride always sucks. These are about the same as the stock shocks, which I am really happy with. The hardest part was getting the shock boot to stay in place. Not a big issue, at all though.

Skyjacker
I bought two open box front Shocks. They are perfect. Great ride and even better price. I have ordered 2 for the rear to match and max the ride. Looks great also.

Better than OEM Ride
I have had a few wranglers in my past, all with value suspension/shocks on them. When my stock suspension finally gave out on this wrangler, I started looking for shocks. I stumbled across these and decided to give them a shot. I would have to say these are some of the best (if not the best) value shocks I have purchased in terms of ride quality and build quality. I am throughly impressed with these shocks. Definitely would recommend for all 4 corners of your Wrangler!
