Ok and what about Pro Comp?
I have reviewed quite a few makes and the ones that always come back are Bilstein/Monroe, I curently have Monroes and they are not really that good previous owner fitted cheap ones though...
I seem to be leaning towards the Bilsteins then... but so many option out there ...

I think if you search here the prevailing wind is factory stock shocks. I agree with that too.

Also, if you Tow or have any other reason to want to change the dampening effect of your Shocks, they do make those which have a "****' on them, which you can change the dampening effect. (firm/soft)

I put some Gabriel ProGuard from AutoZone in the front for about $25.00 a piece, and they made the front ride worse than the old worn out shocks.
