www.shox.com has the cheapest ones I could find!
I really wish I had gone with oen of the complete packages though. $999 gets you sways, bushings, support braces, and Bilstein adjustables. Or $600 gets you Konis...

aren't those bushings supposed to be a royal PITA to replace?
thanks for the tip I'll check it out!
I wonder if those Bilstein Sport shocks for the z51 suspension are any good? They're obviously not adjustable but they're half the price

Bushings are generally a PITA to replace, but if yours are worn to any extent it makes a huge difference. Nothing that's going to gain you 30 seconds on a track, but the voer all feel will be much smoother and tighther.
it's more for the sway bars, shock braces, adjustable composite leaf springs and everything else that comes with the kit that makes it a deal.
In all honesty, I was expecting a lot more from the Koni's. They have *much* better reboudn, btu the dampening isn't much better than my stock suspension.
I would save the money unless you were going with a full out setup.
