Skyjacker shocks after 2000 miles??

I'm confused, I bought 4 Skyjackers and a stableizer shock (nitro 7000). I have put around 2000 miles on them. At least 1500 over the hard pavement and 500 only on trailers. Nothing crazy at all, I have 1 to 2 inch lift. I needed to take off one of the front shocks and it was flat. It would not go to its top erect point. I shook it and I could here the liquid slouching around. Is this normal? What is the liquid I'm hearing? I'm getting Bilstein next time.

Thanks, Brian

Go back to who you bought the shock from!!

Just like all else once in a while a bad one slips through you can`t inspect every one.

I have had great luck with Skyjacker customer service. In the days before they got to big to deal direct with the end user.

Skyjacker offers a lifetime warranty, one of my 4 shocks started leaking after a year. Called skyjacker directly. My replacement is sitting on my living room floor. I will have to send the bad one back for credit. No questions asked.
