New Shocks
After being beat up by my Rancho's for years I'm ready to replace my shocks in the Jimmy. What is a good urban driving shock? The city streets are brutal. There is no lift on the Jimmy.

Re: New Shocks
A lot of people say bilstein's are good. It probably won't ever be that smooth since you have those negative arched springs up front. Every little bit helps though.

Re: New Shocks
Third on the Bilstein vote. I have had them on lowered, lifted, and stock trucks.
