Default Opinion on shocks - gravel roads mostly...

My jeeps shocks are toast and for her 25th birthday I think I will give her some new shocks.

I'd like an opinion or two as to what I should get.

I use it mostly for camping/road trips on gravel, washboard, and rock roads. It's stock. I feel each and every small bump even on the highway and it can't handle washboard right now... Also sometimes I use it to haul a heavy load in the back or in a trailer.

I can't afford too much so keep that in mind! I'd like to spend 150 or less on the whole set.

www.rockauto.com is your best friend. I see Monroe-matic Plus shocks on there for as low as $16 a piece, and theres nothing wrong with those. The better Monroe Sensa-Tracs are $18.50 a piece.
