Re: WHATS THE BEST SHOCK?
I'm sure there will be other answers but I really like the Bilsteins I bought.
They're excellent quality, reasonably priced and are finished with a brushed aluminum finish.
I bought mine from Pinnacle Motorsports. His prices were excellent and had fast shipping.
HTH's,

Re: WHATS THE BEST SHOCK?
Had Bilsteins on my '03 H2 and loved them. I run the Rancho 9000's on my 05 H2 and love them. Neither set was very expensive and both run great.
Be prepared to part with extra $$$$ if you want reservoir shocks.
P.S. I picked up both sets at Central 4WD.

Re: WHATS THE BEST SHOCK?
I had bilsteins put on with my lift, definetely one of the best for a worth it price. Some shocks out there are designed for looks and not necessarily for function, but bilstein is one of the top rated. Do your research and you will find the same.
