i used to use Procomp ES1000s, I got all 4 for just over $100. they worked decent, but there is definitely some truth to "you get what you pay for".

i read somewhere that YJ shocks work with some home fab BPE's.

the YJ fronts have that Stab end instead of the eye end... i cant remember the name of that type for the life of me

hope this helps

you can't go wrong with doest tech...they come with RE kits and they work great on and off road. I've had two sets and for $120 per set or so...they're tough to beat. Plus they have a lifetime warranty.
