Default Shocks

Ok so my shocks are shot. Im going to convert to coil over in a year or so when i do all the work on my car but for now my car has a really terrible ride right now and it doesnt hook up becuase of the fact that my shocks are shot. I want some nice self adjusting shocks. What brands do you guys like? Im a 4wheeler by heart so im used to using brands like Rancho.

if you are going to get coil overs then just replace what you have with something cheap until you get the coilovers. cheap like stock.

Try the Tokico HP's, nice ride for the money if your looking for lower end on the price. You can find them for $240 for all four shocks and struts all day long on ebay.

Good Luck!
