12 inch travel shocks

My bilstien 5125 12in travel shocks need to be replaced. Anyone know a place to get them for the best price or another brand that's better for around the same price?

I just ordered a pair from a vendor on jeepforum for $145 delivered. I didn't shop around a ton, but it was better than most other prices I found

Re:

I am linking my front end so I sold the 14" Bilsteins that were on it a month or two back. I looked on the web to see prices before I priced them used and cheapest place I found them was on Ebay for like $169.99 shipped. (For 14's)

For a leaf sprung front end, it rode really well with the Bilsteins. I'd say they are hard to beat.

Re:

Just out of curiosity, why do they need to be replaced?

My back drivers side shock is leaking and I'm not sure how long they have been on the vehicle cause they were on it when I bought it so I'm just gonna go ahead an change all of them.

Good idea, I think you will be satisfied with 4 new ones.
