A little lesson:
Monroe - they are good shocks, but they make CAR shocks primarily, they are made to make a 4x4 handle more like a car on the road
Bilstein - they are better shocks, but they make CAR shocks primarily, they make some specific for 4x4 capability enhamcement, but once again are to make a 4x4 handle better on the road
Old Man Emu - they are made specifically for 4x4's, made specifically to enhance off road capabilities, and are made to withstand the Aussie Outback - the toughest 4x4 terrain in the world. THEY DO NOT MAKE CAR SHOCKS!
You decide what is best for your application.
FYI - I bought my RRC and it had the coil spring conversion completed on it with Bilsteins. They are just fine for me. If I find I am going to do more Off Road than 10-12 times per year I WILL upgrade the shocks & springs to OME.
As an afterthought - remember your bushings too!
