    i have a friend with a 2008 T4R with about 100k miles. He complains that the ride just isn't what it used to be. Would new shocks help him out? Original shocks are still installed.

    He doesn't off road. What would you recommend as a cost effective shock replacement option for him? He doesn't wanna put much money into it, but if an additional $100-200 would be that much better, he probably would.

    Thanks. I'm not familiar with t4r suspension systems so your help is appreciated.
