I think I am need of new shocks, currently have the Monroe Reflex shocks on my SUV. How long do these truck shocks last before they need replacement?

They currently have about 65k on them and have been on for about 30 months. Is there a brand that people have used that seem to be a decent shock for the money??

Also need to replace ball joints, esp the lowers, swimming around in there. Is there a site that has a good deal so i can get those and the axle pivots and radius bushings?:confused:
 






You can find balljoints for a decent price at your local parts house, but for the bushings, I would get with Hank, he sells the Daystars on this site, I put them in a year ago, and it really tightened my suspension up.
 






I have Gabriel shocks on my 94. I think that they are real pieces of junk. I bought them at Leesville in Rahway. Never again
