Best budget shock, bang for buck, for a spring/shock swap I am just wanting a good shock that will work well with a 1.5 drop all the way around.
I don't want any of those extremely expensive shocks some of you guys use. I would like to spend no more than 250-350.
Any help appreciated.

I'd say SLP Bilsteins. A tad more than you're looking to spend, but a good shock. A cheaper substitute would be the KYB AGX's that are "adjustable" and slightly cheaper than the SLP Bilsteins, but are also not as high of quality.

There's actually places that have them for around $380. That's $30 cheaper than Strano's sale. Just to be for warned...they're on backorder right now til "Mid" April...

Where did you find them for $30 cheaper? I found them for $19 cheaper shipped to my door than what Strano is asking. But he also has cheaper prices on some other things. I saw one place that was asking $129 more than what Strano was. What a rip!!!

I bought my full set of Bilstein HD's. Not the SLP ones which aren't as good, for only $380 from partsgeek.com. I added the next day shipping on them which could have saved me $30. Came ot to $410 with that shipping.
