I've tried several different brands, and finally settled on Bilstiens. What a difference! Couldn't be happier. They cost a little more than the Autozone brands, but IMHO they are definitely worth the difference.

What shock were you using. Or are using.. I was thinkn of just brand new one replacements and some bilstein. I've seen them go for like 70 bucks each. So thats not bad

I tried Monroe, Gabriel and AC Delco. Bilstiens win out.

Using stock springs ( new Moog Replacements). Tried the variable load springs, but didn't like the ride.
