smooth riding shocks
Whats a good way to go for some smooth riding shocks, i have RE Twin tubes and my xj rides like a tank. i dont wanna spend $400 on some OMEs though, idk whats a decently smooth shock for a good price.

Ranchos are always good. I run the Rancho 9000's and love them. I have had Rancho 5000 and they are good too. I think they sell for around $50 a piece.

I have experienced so many different aftermarket shocks that i feel i can chime in here. With my tj, i tried the following shocks:
stock
doetech
fabtech
skyjacker
rancho
old man emu
best? Old Man Emu. Smoothest shocks out of all of them. 2nd would be stock, 3rd skyjacker
XJ
stock
old man emu
Of course, old man emu is the best of the two. I'm not gonna go through a dozen of shocks this time cuz i know i got all the shock i could ask for. You ask this question "smoothest riding shock? or best shock?" on any forum and old man emu will pop up nearly everytime. Worth every penny.
