Z85 Shock Alternatives
 

My 2002 4 door 4wd blazer has the Z85 HD Suspension package. I am noticing that my ride is getting progressively worse and its about time to replace my shocks. Searching on Rock Auto I found replacement shocks for the Z85 suspension package but they are close to $100 bucks a piece, are there any alternatives or do I have to use the Z85 shocks.

My Jimmy came with the z85 package. I recently replaced my worn shocks with monroe reflex monotubes. Everyone online says to go with Bilsteins, and they are really nice, don't get me wrong, I just didn't want to spend that much money.

I'm really happy with the monroe shocks so far, they are stiffer than I thought they would be, but it definitely increased the handling performance of my Jimmy. The best part is I got them for a little over 50 a shock. You can find them on rock auto for about 43 bucks a shock.
