JBG Shocks

I'm looking at shocks has anyone bought any of these before?

I dont want to spend a whole lot and I could use some new ones. Or any other options people have gone with?

Ive got spacers, but im getting extended springs to bring it back up. Shocks that are on it now are still stock so I figured anything new now is better than 16 year old ones

You will find may threads on shocks if you search. The PO put JBG GasAdjust on before I bought my Bronco with 150K miles. Now 40K later I have no reason to replace them. Remember, weighing 5,300 lbs, it is not going to be a sports car.

I have all 4 up front along with a front leveling kit from jbg. I like the ride, its still a little rough but I need tires soon and the ride quality of my Yokohama geolander AT-S was always a little rough for my tastes. I replaced every bushing and joint in my front end too so mine its tight and responsive for a bronco. I would reccomend them. I've bought parts store Monroe sensatracks for other vehicles in the past and never liked them.
