Whatever you do, I highly suggest you find shocks which have urethane
bushings at boths ends. I would suggest also to stay away from Rancho
shocks. I had my Rancho RS5000's on for only 1 year when the rubber
bushings, on all 4, shocks needed replacing. I bought a $40 urethane bushing
kit and not after having the shocks on for 2 years, the entire shock(s) are
ready to be thrown out. Save your money and time, and just get the best ones
you can buy/afford; just make sure they have urethane bushings!! Incase you
missed it, I did a nice little write-up findings shocks for my Dak,
technical, but very informative for me atleast:
