Shock Absorbers

[choll]

Hey everyone,
Im currently overseas and trying to get some parts to throw on my 1009, when I get back to the country mid July. The truck had been sitting for about 2 years, I blew the motor before leaving. New motor has been put in. So I want to do new shocks and some other things before I hit the road with it. have been looking at Auto Zone web site the shocks range anywhere from $26-$131. Any suggestions on a mid level shock, front and rear.

Thanks
Chuck

All of the above are good suggestions. I have personally used the Monroe Gas-Magnum shocks on my MV's and am pleased with them (the wife is too for what it's worth). Reasonably priced on RockAuto.com and other outlets.
