I am going to be buying new rear shocks and mounts for my truck as they are toast so I started thinking why not go for all 4 and be done with it. I know the majority will say go with Bilstein but for my price range at the moment due to other repairs needed, I don't want to go down that road.

That lead me to two options that seem to be decent for the Ranger:

Rancho RS5000X
KYB Gas-A-Just

I've been trying to find as many reviews as possible on both to make the best decision. I could have the Ranchos for right around $200 delivered or the KYBs for about $140 delivered. My truck will be on the highway about 85% of the time with the remaining 15% being dirt country roads or some light off road situations. I feel that anything will be better than the factory shocks that have 140k miles & 18 years of wear and tear on them but these two shocks seem to stick out to me.

Anyone have any first hand experiences with either of these that they can offer up?
