Hey guys, I have Air Lift suspension but kept the crappy raceland rear shocks. It feels like it's time to replace them. Should I get the cheaper air lift rear shocks or should i get bilstein or koni yellows? Are the air lift shocks better suited for my air suspension for any particular reason? I'm no expert but the body seems a bit shorter than the other two.

One of the selling points of the Air Lift shocks is that they're made to take the abuse of it being lowered all the time. They are expensive, but come with more dampening settings. I heard they are prone to blowing out.

I have Koni Yellows and I'm very happy. I removed the bump stops and they go as low as I need them to. Hear a lot of good things about the yellows.
