I also am running cheapie shocks, but I ended up with Monroe Reflexes on
the front and Gabriel VST's on the back because nobody had a full set when
I needed them. I have yet to have anybody prove to me that the high dollar
shocks are actually 3-5 times better than the ones I am using. My
theory: If have to replace them twice as often, I am still way ahead on
money, and have the "new shock ride" twice as long... YMMV
