The only thing that I can tell you is that you get what you pay for. I have
made it my personal policy to get the very best, but to find the best price
that I can on it.

Looking at my local autozone, they have:
Gabriel gas - $20@
Sport ryder - $20@
3 kinds of Trailmaster - $35-60@
and a bilstein for $70
In theory, the $20 shocks ought to be better than my 81k mile stock shocks
Right? My street has 14 speedbumps between my house and the main drag, so
whatever shock I get is going to die an early death, so I am hesatant to
spend the big $$ for the "brand name" shocks if there isn't a demonstrable
difference in either ride or longevity.

I have Edelbrocks, just love them. Huge difference in the ride. Mine is a
98 SLT CC 2wd

Okay, I am at the point where I need new shocks. At 83K, the stockers are
still on there (YUCK), and I am looking for a good, moderately priced shock.
I have always liked the KYB Gas-A-Just on my cars, but am open to something
else. I am not prepared to spend $100 a shock, maybe $50 a piece - MAX. Any
suggestions? I have looked at Bilstein's site, KYB's site, Pro-Comp's site,
and Rancho's - I am still undecided!!!! HELP!
