Default Rancho Shocks

Lookin to upgrade my stock shocks. With the ranch rs9000
Part# rs999262

Listed on sears for $75 each...but the picture looks dif than others but thats the best deal. Is there 2 dif kinds other than front & rear?

Is there a better bolt on shock upgrade?
Should i just go w air adjustable shocks?

the nice thing about air shocks is that they will typically have a pretty loose extension and a fairly firm compression which works great with a set of cal-tracs. are there better options? definately. those better options are much more expensive.

I'm on a budget. So the cheaper the pair..the better....

Is there anyone that does custom track bars? Caltracs are really expensive too.

Can i use the djm sway bar kit w all this?
