I agree. My philosophy is to save that $100 towards the bilsteins that are $300 because when those cheap 100 shocks rattle your brains out or blow out, now you have to buy bilsteins and are out $400 total

I went thru 3 sets of Rancho RS5000's in no time.........changed over to Bilsteins in 06 and absolutely not one problem since then. Unless your shocks you have right now are completely clapped out and falling off......I'd just bypass the RC shocks and save a bit longer. It's like night and day difference! I suggest the Bilstein 5100 series
