What are the best shocks for the L, who sells them, and how much do they cost?
I am interested in any and all options and price ranges.
Any help out there?

I have stock 04 Bilsteins for 4 $100 bucks
I have KYB's which are a little better than stock for around $280 a set
I have 9 way adjustable for STOCK ride height trucks for $320 a set.
I have HAL QA1's 12 ways for $750 a set with correct hardware.

The QA's can be orded to fit anything. I have put the 9ways on a set of 2" shackles the are VERY close. A set of shock extenders would help. They are made by a Monroe performance shop.

So, bang for the buck-wise, what's the better shock for an aggressively driven daily driver (no track driving)?

Does anyone have any experience with QA1 failures? I've read quite a few posts where people have either broken or damaged these shocks. Reliability is a big concern of mine.
Thanks,
Edward
