No, you won't need a lift to replace the shocks, as long as the shocks are recommended for 0" of lift. If you want the best, go with Old Man Emu.

Opinion, Monroe makes them, monroe also makes 3/4's of the shocks we talk about on here. Just get some plain old monroes, just as good and you dont have to pay for the logo.

Yes, I also distribute many other Monroe made shocks daily. Not to mention wheel most of them.
The OME Nitrochargers are the same shock as the Monroe Magnum. Same internals, same valving. Except the OME's are $85, the Monroe labeled are $33.

I'm stock so far but I'm considering a mild (2'') lift.

Agreed. If you want a smooth ride get a Caddilac. Period.
Do you have any fact to back up your skepticism?
Diesel isn't gonna blow smoke up your tail. I've seen many of his posts and he's shown many times he's not full of ****.
So unless you can show otherwise, I'd suggest keeping your comments to yourself.

I rarely recommend gas shocks, but the magnums are very well built just like any other monroe shock.
Offroad, no, on road, yes. Reason being, if you dent the gas shock it will leak, hydro shocks are a bit more durable.

Yea, its really a hit or miss. But I try not to say that cause it sparks arguements. But yes, Ive had 2 good sets, that I ruined, and 2 bad sets from the factory.
