alright .. got a specific website for em? (cheapest)

 

[PA99XploderSport]

These are pretty pricey they replace the whole strut assembly as well as strut. I went on Monroes website. There $150-$175 each, so yeah a bit pricey! I also hear just the monroe struts are also nice but I don't have a price on them.

I am not there on any set weekend, our drills are spread out through out the month. I usually do 2 Friday 2nd shifts. I will let you know the next time I am out there on a drill weekend, it probably will be Sept drill because we do our PT test and warrior training next month!

Got 'em on my '04 4WD V8. I love 'em. They are excellent off road, and the variable valving does a resonable job when crusing around the desert. Way way better than the stock shocks.

Fronts - RSX17521 $89.79 each
Rears - RSX17507 $83.79 each

Somewhere around here is a 5% discount for Rockauto...
