  • shock opinions

    well i've got a blown shock in the rear... they are shitty re twintubes for a budget lift so I'm thinking about just replacing all four.

    Is there anything i can get for relatively cheap that is an upgrade or should I just replace the one shock and save my money?

    cheap does not equal upgrade.

          I say do all 4 at once.....it's just smarter that way. For brands, thats up to you. I have the Skyjacker Nitros, and they aren't too bad, just the firm ride takes a bit to get used to. Plus beware of bad poly bushings

                            agreed on if front aint broke then dont fix it. 2 rears. seems to me the bilsteins are only 54 bucks right now. spend the extra 30 bucks and get quality.

                              well the shocks are for 2 inches of lift, and i'm at 3 inches right now. I might as well do the fronts too and have shocks that actually work for my setup.
