Since you live in Poland I don't know what all is available to you.
In the United States the prefered brand of shocks are Rancho RS5000 or RSX5000, Edelbrock IAS, Bilstein or Gabriel.

I hope this helps.
 






See if you can get yourself on Bilstein. They're German made so it should be much easier to source them in Europe. I feel they're the best shocks on the market as well.
 






Thanks a lot for your replies!!

I forget to write that I got an european version that got self pumping back shocks (self level adjustment).
A friend of mine told me that they are very expensive.. I check the dealer.. that's right!
But He told me that I can use other self pumping system and new normal shocks.
Do you have an idea how to do this?
Best regards,
Stef.
 






Does anybody got monted a Rancho RS9000-RCX In-Cab Remote Control System in a X?
Is it as great as they say?
B. regards,
Stef
