People like the 9000s, but I'm a Bilstein kinda guy. The Germans are good at making shocks among several other things.

I'm with Razzi on this one, I had 9000's on my previous excursion but now use the bilsteins on my current Ex. I prefer the ride from the bilsteins.

I have 9000xls now can't speak for blistens. But I hear they are good also. Defiantly wait for a rancho sale. When i got mine in the spring sale, with the ranch rebates and the auto anything discount they were around 350. I like my 9000 have no complaints

Advance Auto and online coupon codes. Break it up into multiple purchases and you'll get $50 off each shock.

Beer by any chance? But if you have enough in you then your not going to
cre how bad they shocks are unless your spilling the beer.

One thing I can't figure on any of them is what part numbers for mine since it's a cab chasis. I see glimpses where they say cab chasis but no5 where I am confident i4 is what I need.
Oh Sean--I guess they gor the fire put out?
