    20k yata for the pair (depending on the unit in particular... mine cost about 16k for the Xwind)... the controller, I don't know... between 4k to 8k yata.

    Terribly. My front shocks are shot, so the rear end stays planted and the front end see-saws up and down against the rear axle. I'm replacing the front shocks next.

    The adjustability of the Ranchos mean that I can tune it for comfort, but because my fronts are shot, we can't balance it yet. Waiting for a budget to buy new shocks for the front.

    If you have the budget to buy a full set of four, I strongly suggest this is what you do. :thumbup:

    Hahaha! Yeah, you're ride should really be terrible if a shock absorber or two is/are shot. Happened to my Camry before, both right ones were shot. Felt like I was seated directly on the ground.

    I'm not sure, but I think Bilstein and Rancho may be a bit stiffer than OME. Not sure how they are against stock. You'll know right away when you drive off from the shop. I forgot the name of the shop that installed my OMEs, but they did say they'd take my OMEs off and put the OEMs back if the ride didn't improve. Not sure if they'd push through on such though. Hehe!



    hi just like to ask, whats the best soft ride of shock absorber u came across for Prado.

    thanks
