Interesting that you should bring that up. I just learned today that the H3 Adventure Package shocks are Bilsteins!

I have the Rancho 9000 adjustables, and yes I LOVE them.

I bought the Pro Comp ES9000's from here,, http://www.4wheelparts.com/4wp/products/productLine.asp?cat=SUS&prodline=1158&catName=Susp ension&man=PRO&parentProdline=SusShocksPRO&expand= sub7# Not a bad deal, Buy 3 get one free. I got all 4 and boots for 137$ at my door. Wanted to get a few miles on them before I posted about them. Big improvement, they dampen the road bumps alot better and control the front dip on hard braking now, My 2-1/2 T-Bar adjustment let the front end nose down some on hard braking and now its pretty much gone. All in all for the money,,, well worth it. Heres a few pics,

It sits in the garage unless I take a trip , and then I put it on the top rack with a couple of ratchets. I figure if I get a flat in town Im only minutes away from it and Ill deal with it at that time. So far so good but its just a matter of time.. The price Ill probably pay for the look I want on my H3.. See ya
