Good times for sure!

What shocks are you considering?

OME or Fox IFP 2.0

Seems like about the same kinda deal. I wish I could find an affordable adjustable shock in the rebound. Option 2 is just getting some new urethane bushes for all corners.

OME is some decent stuff. They used to be built to spec by Monroe, I’m not sure if that’s still true.

I’m not a fan of urethane on a casual off roader. Too stiff. That’s just me though.

Im generally with you but rubber goes to crap quickly in the desert. As evidenced by these bushes that are less than 70k old.

Koni. Or KYB. Tough Dog at a pinch. After fitting OME’s to two 4x4's I won’t be fooled a third time.

Most people seem to like their Fox shocks but I’ve read quite a few times about them blowing out easily. I’m tempted to go down the Fox road myself but not sure yet, then again, I don’t really drive my cruiser harshly so I would probably be fine.
