I'm asking for a friend. He's got a 1990 x-tra cab 22RE truck with 200K on the clock. He's still on OEM shocks and they are dead. He's looking to upgrade to something he can still use as a DD and some mild off-road use to get to the fishing holes in NC. He's looking to spend $30-$40 a corner. I've mentioned Rancho, Pro-Comp's, and Bilsteins. Don't the TRD Tacoma's come stock with Bilsteins?

not sure how the site here feels for 4wp.... but they pretty much suck.... their guys know almost nothing and they always get the wrong part... i have bought stuff from them, but only when i knew the exact part number.....

that said, they are the main supplier for pro-comps... i actually got pro-comp es3000 for the erar of my truck from summit racing... they are a lot better than the worn out shocks i had on my truck
