Street shock question

Hi guys,

I'm looking to buy a good set of shocks for my 03 GC Laredo I6 4WD. I do 99.99% of my driving on the street/highways and the bouncing around from the factory shocks is starting to get to me. My WJ has 52k miles...

I don't mind spending money for quality, are Bilsteins overkill for this?

Thanks for your help

Bilsteins are about the best for the Stock height for ride and good quality

Also edelbrock IAS shocks i hear those are good too BUT they're expensive.

Thanks Josh - I have them on my Corvette (factory on the Z51 cars) and had them on a 94 ZJ with UpCountry - the Corvette is very, VERY stiff but that's why it handles so well. I forget how the ZJ rode, it was a while back. I'm looking for the best ride I can get on the street, stock height with 245/70-16's on the std Silverblade wheels.

Thanks man
Dave

PS - I sent you a YAHOO! IM msg - I might be interested in the Amsoil stuff, thanks.
