They are all fine. Buy one's that are meant for what you plan to do. (off road or street).

Otherwise if you search you can find 50+ threads on shocks.

Edit: these are what you need. Anything else is a waste of money.

Yes they are. Really if your shocks are worn out, any new shock will suffice. I went with Monroe Sensa-tracs because they were like $15 each on sale and I don't off road daily.

I bought them high dollar Bilsteins one time. But, I use Monroe after that one high dollar test run. First car (not truck) I put shocks on was a 1965 Chevy Nova and used Monroe. So, that kind of sticks in my mind since they were really good.

On the same link that tackle sent at the bottom are rancho rs5000s. All 4 for 230 bucks. Ive heard good things about them and will probably be what i end up running. The shocks tackle sent look to me to be for pretty hard off road use. I could be wrong though
