Shock absorbers Dobinsons or GABRIEL

I used Gabriel's on front and KYB in the back. I also replaced the sway bar links. They were busted and rusted out/seized to strut.

These Gabriels are tight. The rear feels a little on the stiff side, but they should soften in a couple thousand miles. They seem really well made, too. The shroud covering the piston seems stout and they came with nice bushings. The stock KYBs were absolutely shot, but they gave it their best try.

2021 Trail Edition Dobinson coils/struts Dobinson shocks/add a leaf and Geolander 295/70-18’s. I’m 100% happy with the height, the ride and the look.

I like Gabriel shocks. Gabriel offers one of the most extensive light vehicle product lines in the aftermarket. Not to mention the most durable, too

The beetle ones have done me right for probably 30k miles. My setup is 3.5 in drop plates on 13"s with no leafs removed, it can still haul 800lbs with 130psi in the rear no problem.

Depends on your priorities. I go KYB for a good mix. Monroe if I’m broke. Gabriel if I’m a masochist.
