This is what I bought. I talked my sellers price down. Maybe you could have the same luck I did.

If the guy closer towards the top suggested JK shocks why not go to a offroad store that installs lifts. people lifting their new JK will more than likely trash their old shocks, so maybe you can score a free set!
Paint those rear corners black to match!
good looking jeep by the way!
I have rustys shocks and havent had a problems at all.
Anyone have any follow up on rustys?

I have rancho 5000s in the front and rancho RSX's (from a friend's K5 Blazer) in the rear.
The 5000s feel nice (had them with the stockers in back for a while). But the RSX's are Epic, responsive and smooth.... with people in the car. When it's just me, it bounces like it's got junk in the trunk (not literally of course).
I'm about to buy 5000's for the rear. Oh and, Bar-pin eliminators are a great investment.

They are used so you don't have to worry about the bolts in the body snapping off when you replace your shocks. The bar pins are the pins that come pressed into the upper eye of the shocks. With the eliminators it allows you to use bolts through the eye so there is no more risk of the broken shock bolts.
