fox/bilstien..necessary?

i am about to put my lift on..fabtech, with the extended front shock for stock coil..in the rear i have not purchased shocks, but think the pro-comp es-9000, would work fine, they are the same shock as the fabtech..anyway, should i up-grade to the next level? a racing style? they do look cool and not too terribly priced..worth it?

Worth is such a relative term?? Is it worth it to you?

Is air conditioning or a CD changer "necessary"?? No...but it sure is nice!

Yes, these high prices premium shocks 99% of the time are better than a plain old shock and do make a significant difference...you just have to be the type of person that doesn't mind paying and can appreciate the upgrade. Many guys on here are not of that caliber and will swear a Monroe Gas-Matic shock is 'just as good'. Like I said, only a relative decision you can make.

ok..i'll recede..'necessary' i don't mind a few nice upgrades..in the future i plan to swap out for coil overs up front..i guess i was just wondering if they 'over' stiff the ride, being in the rear..wondered..
Quick rant..4wheel parts stores..are they as bad everywhere else..been waiting a month for rear u-bolts..they had every excuse..then they show up..no washers or nuts..really?
they suck...
