Go to that website posted above and press on you make and year. It will give you the exact ones you need.

I had Monroes on the rear of my truck for 1 day. Both blew out with only street driving. They DID NOT work at all. Correct part number, looked new, I dont know. I bought some Ranchos, ok I guess, better than the Monroe and old whatever brand were on there before. I did not like that they were not gas pressurized. I then bought some KYBs. They are still on there from a few years ago and still work great. If I ever get a FZJ80, I want to put on Bilstiens (sp?).

Edit: I bought the Gas-a-just. I bought them from Advance Auto, free shipping to whatever store you order from. The price for the rears on that site above seem high. The front was about the same I paid.

I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.

Summit Racing had the lowest price going when I was looking for KYBs. Advanced Auto price matched them, and I didn't have to pay shipping! I really like the KYBs so far...8 months into them.

I had Rancho 5000 before that, and they were decent shocks for the money...for about 2 years...after that they performed a lot like Brendan's video. I replaced them 3 years after that. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
