give shane a call at suspension stuff. He will give you an unbiased report on the boss/procomps or any other type of shock you can think of.

I have bought a few sets for different 4x4's and he is always on the money with his knowledge and advice.

my 2c worth, procomps ! I have them on my GQ diesel wagon and they are great.

Gotta go with that - I stuffed my shocks 6 months ago, did my homework and was better/cheaper to get ProComps from Shane even here in NZ.

many people are not happy with their leaky tough dogs. AFAIK tough dogs, rancho and boss are all made in the same factory.

It would be interesting to see how the boss shocks are going in a year or 2.

IMO procomps are the best budget shock on the market.

Another one here for Procomps.

On 2nd set now, 2 years old and still like new. I got 6 years out of first set, They were only replaced after one started to leak on the return from the Cape (still have them as spares).
