Wife's 95 XJ needs new shocks, runs on pavement 90% of the time.

Make / Model recommendations?

Installation tips?

thanks

Hi Paul,
I like the feel of Gabriel gas 50/50 heavy duty shock absorbers,
sold at Sears, might let them have the job too:

agreed..Sears cannot be beat when they have a free install sale...the rear
bolts on mine (95 XJ) were gone and they did a nice job of putting a bolt on
..it was a pain and glad I did not do it..Lifetime warrantee to...cant
remember what brand but new is good for street..

Thanks guys.
ok then, I'll watch for a sale at Sears and take the free install.

Running into snapped bolts in Feb. without a heated garage could turn a
'project' into a 'nightmare'.

thanks
