Default OME B51 vs falcon 3.3s

Hello fellow Jkers.... I have rethought my decision on shocks I was ordering this week.... I have spoken to a couple people which has put my faith in Falcons in quicksand....

So I want the community thoughts on the two shocks... I cant get my hands on Fox, I can get my hands on the OME and Falcons.... but need so info from you guys on which would be a better fit/ Quality... I want a remote res shock...

Ive heard that the Falcons valving is terrible and that they fail... Ive heard the the BP51s have bushing issues and that the shaft cover break easily..

Bilstein has remote reservoir shocks too - I have never seen them or heard of anyone running them but all my past experiences with Bilsteins have been very positive.
