I just installed the Eibach 2.0 Pro coilovers on my Badlands. I noticed Eibach does not have the bellows to help protect the shock rod from dust and debris. I hear many complaints about Eibach rear shocks failing but not in the front. The rear shocks tend to be more exposed to dust and debris than the fronts. I am sure Eibach shock rods have a dust wiper but those only last so long and then the oil seal starts to get more wear from it, followed by eventual failure. This is only a suspicion but I feel it is a valid one.

Has anyone ever tried to use a bellows on an Eibach shock?
