Needing shocks
My shocks are shot...Rear shocks are leaking a bit, and all 4 are squeaking. I have a RC 4.5" lift, no telling how old it is. Who makes decent shocks. I am not looking to put billstein's on it and spend $300+ on shocks. I was going to order some RC ones, but didn't know if there was a better bank for the buck out there. This isn't a DD, I drive it during bad weather 30 miles to work and drive it in town instead of my 15' mustang GT. I also hunt out of it and go wheeling.

Can't go wrong with Doetsch Tech 8000's either. http://www.ironrockoffroad.com/Merch...egory_Code=XSP

It it was something I drove all the time, I would buy OME, billsteins or something. But its not something that I drive much to justify the extra cost on shocks.

I'll let you know. I bought the shock pin eliminator's as well since I have thud noises too that I am 99% sure is in the shock. Just bought ground shipping since it was free...Was going to order 2 day, but its too late to get them here by sat. with 2 day, so I just decided to go with free ground since it would be next week regardless.

I run gabriel max control if you go through the autozone catalog you'll find different vehicles with the lengths you need. $150 for a set of 4 lifetime warranty mono tube shocks you just go in and exchange. I had the dt8000 and was not a fan the bumpstops only take a hit or two and there just like any other white body I've had but twice as much.
