I have not tried these yet, but plan on getting Rough Country Hydro 8000 shocks. You can get all four for 127.99 at www.jcwhitney.com. They look like pretty good shocks and have pretty decent reviews. Try jcwhitneys.com and take a look at some, they have a lot to choose from.

I went to NAPA and picked up the Monro SensaTracks.
It depends what blazer you have as well.
The shocks for the ZR2 cost like $315 for all 4.
The guy said "Holy SH*T" when he saw how much they cost compared
to the regular blazers.
It still has the ride quality of a tank, but at least the squeaking
stopped.
