I did a Monroe shock coilover conversion in the rear and love them but I don't think they come in lifted sizes. But hey they might. I'll get pics tomorrow.

There is Bilstein and then there is everything else. Bilstein ride better longer. Stock tokico are better than Rancho.

my lift hasn't been on that long and i'm already looking for new shocks. i myself was contemplating Rancho shocks for my lifted street truck but after thinking about it long and hard, i'm thinking Bilstein is the way to go.
