A better shock is one that you can tune. Straight up and own is awesome I don't what you're talking about them being not that good for rock crawling. Maybe you've got a different expectation then I do. You want a shock that works buy one that is tunable. NO ONE has a better shock then the one that is tailored to your needs. Manufacturer doesn't matter for the most part but there are a couple of companies I'd stay away from unless you like leaky oily shocks.  But you seem to have found them already so......

Just the man I wanted to hear from. ...
Thanks everyone for the help.  I am still planning on a front three link from 4wu, but until i get there I might as well fix the rear because I think if its wobbly now it might be worse with the three link.  Either way it needs improved.  Im going to take the hard top off and put the soft top on in a week or so, add one more leaf to my rear packs because they are too soft anyways, and then Im going to weld on my new lower shock mounts.  They are from ruffstuff and go on the back side of the axle.  With the mounts lower I can run the shocks nearly straight up and down again.  From there I will most likely try the ranchos due to the good reviews and low cost.  Then if those don't cut it I'll get some radflos valved by someone who knows what they are doing.  I can play with it form there.  I'll update on my thread and here.
