98 shocks

Need to change out my stock shocks on the Expy. I'm at 140,000 miles. I've narrowed it down to either the Rancho RSX or a set of Bilsteins. Was wondering if anyone had any good suggestions, pro/cons? Thanks!!

I have a set of the Rancho RSX on my Expy and am very impressed with them. They don't have a punishing ride, but they are firm and keep the tires planted. I found a full set online for $160 and haven't regretted them a bit. These replaced a set of Monroe Reflex which actually did a fine job, but the Rancho's can handle a heavier load. Whatever you decide, stick with nitrogen gas-charged shocks.

Found 'em right here. They shipped them fast and don't worry about it being an auction, they are brand new in the box. The want $165 + $20 shipping. Good luck!

It looks like the forum's links might be a little messed up, so if the link doesn't work, I can e-mail it to you.
