Help a canadian with bad shocks

I've read every post on shocks. Most of you guys are from usa. And the prices you discuss aren't the same for me.

So i'm callin to all u canadians out there to tell me what you shock prices are in $Can.

Some of these prices are good, and some are very high.

Random list of shocks I priced for my truck

Edelbrock Performer IAS - $122.36 each
Bilsien - $159 front each
$179 rears each
Pro Comp 9000 series - $70 each

Rancho RS9000X - $320 each
Rancho RSX - $108 each
Rancho RS5000 - $56 each

These are priced at Tiger Automotive, and Canadian Tire in Saskatoon.
If you could also state where you bought your shocks from, would be great

Welcome to the boards mudflinger150!

I bought my Edelbrock IAS Performer shocks from The Final Lap in Ottawa for $100 each. All other places were in the $125 range.

Hope this helps

I bought them at Canadian tire.
4 RS5000's came to $250 with tax

I just installed them today. I very happy with them. They soak up the bumps really well. I can take speed bumps without jumping up in the back.

The shocks were pretty hard to take off in the back. I had to torch off my top bolts, since i couldn't get a big wrench in there to break them loose. The fronts were a piece of cake to change.
