rubicon express mono tubes. they are built by bilstein, so they are exactly like them (5100), so they are cheaper, but come with a lifetime warranty.

Try Summit Racing and Jegs for shocks they have free shipping and can get anything you want at the best prices (they price match).

I buy a lot of items for my XJ from them and while not in your location they have good service and fast shipping.

As you know I'm sure with any of the larger lifts all costs increase for every 1" above 3" and even more above 4 1/2"'s it can get very costly for any kind of quality. Did you call Summit or Jegs its free for the call.

Doetsch shocks off IRO are $200 for a set (4), I really like them and they do great offroad.

Gabriel max control 77952

for the front gotta use bar pin and stem eliminators. Through autozone.com I got 4 for $204 shipped life time warranty just walk in with blown ones and walk out with new ones. Not bad for a mono tube.
