Rough country shocks!!!!!

It's about time for me to replace my shocks but still on a budget. I came across some Rough Country Shocks on eBay with a pretty good price.

My question to you guys is.

For you guys that have it or heard of someone who has it. Are the shock good or bad? Would you guys recommend buying the shocks?

This would really help a lot!!! Thanks

-Roger

They are budget shocks...But they will do nicely. I'm running them, but I mostly do mud offroading so shocks aren't a big deal. Regular driving is fine too.

Hahahah as long as the weld is strong enough to hold the weight then it's all good.

But yeah I'm going to order the shocks this weekend and test them out haven't heard of any bad things yet just positive replys.
