Monroe Shock Absorber, I use sensi trac front and back, the rears have the load assist coil overs, not for lift but for all that junk in the back. Made by Tenneco, USA!
One of my customers, they build quality. Check out the Monroe website.
I use block on lower mount of the front and have raised the lower mount point at the rear by cut and reweld.
