Any thoughts on Skyjacker Hydro 7000 lifted shocks?

Nothing really that special about them. Ride soft and seem to be pretty reliable for a pretty good price.

I had them on a lifted half ton, they rode alrite but wore out Fast and squeeked for some reason. Not real impressive.

the body rusted quick on mine and looks kinda crappy...other than that their ok

I was going to post the same thing. I have them on a 1/2 ton of mine. About a year and they are starting to rust. I actually considered clearcoating them, but was too exited to put them on. If I were you, I would. Nice for the price though.

Skyjacker has changed their powder coating because of the rust issue. Their lifts are now a "high quality" black powder coat. As far as the shocks go I don't know if they changed the surface on those. Hopefully they did because I just put some on my truck.

After driving with them can you tell a difference between stock? Have you used any others and how do they compare (that question is for all)?
