What shocks to get for a 2nd Gen?

Hi all,


This weekend me and a buddy went to explore some BLM ( federal public) land to go shooting on. I took my Volvo XC90. Not the first choice ha.

My 94 Runner 4x4 has been sitting around, I want to fix up the suspension. Question is, I'm looking at replacing my front and rear end shocks/coils. I was looking at Rancho's vs Bilsteins, not sure what models and what not.

My usage would be navigating dirt roads and trails on BLM land.

I'm looking for something with a budget in mind.

Bilstein is better quality, and will cost more. Ranchos work fine for a relatively stock application, though. They'll handle dirt roads with ease.

I have Monroe Sensa-trac shocks going on a few years .

I think I paid around $100.00 for all 4 they work fine for me.

My use is about what your looking for.
