I have a 5'' Trailmaster Suspension lift kit on my 99 Blazer. I am looking for replacement shocks to replace the SSV shocks that came with the kit. The boots did not fit on them, and to me they seem a little weak. I am looking for something a little more stiff and maybe from a company that specializes in shocks. (i.e.: rancho, Kyb,)

Also, I am looking for someone who carries replacement bumper stops. My old ones just completely fell apart.

either of those companies you mentioned will carry a good quality shock for lifted applicatioms, you may also want to check out bilstien. as far the bump stops check out rockauto.com or gmpartsdirect.com.

synergyoffroad.com also sells universal 1" poly bump stops. I do believe he has the shocks you are looking for as well, great fella to deal with!
