Shock Absorbers - Recommendations

In good faith I can only recommend Bilsteins or Koni"s as they are top notch and @$70 each. These are the best. Gabriel and Rancho's aren't in the same league for the expy. Rancho's have earned their name mainly in off road and in lifted trucks but ride quality and performance (aka handling response) is not their forte. Gabriel are crap.

I got my rear shocks installed today piece of cake all I needed was a 10" extension on the end of my ratchet to clear everything that is in the way on the drivers side rear. The nut that I originally tried to loosen is actually welded to a spring clip that holds the nut in place while installing the shock. Thanks again 2000EXPY for your assistance.

Can you please send me some pics of your ride with the lowered package installed. I have just installed mine and it was a 2'' in the front and 2'' in the rear. Here is some pics. I think that i should have gone with the 3'' in the back. What do you think? Check ou the pics.
