Default Opions on Dual shock Kits?

I have a feeling someone is going to say this has been discussed before but i looked all over and diddnt find anything. So i am wondering what you guys think of the Fabtech dual shock kits?? i really like the looks of this kit but am trying to decide if it is worth the $200+ that it is usally priced over all the other manufacturers. thanks

they look cool
i think they look better on leaf sprung vehicles when they are placed right next to each other...
...im trying to convince my dad to get a triple shock kit for his super duty (03 F350 6.0 psd) his truck has a 2.5 inch leveling kit, and 285s, i think the triples would look killer, plus he needs new shocks anyway

Better off spending some money and getting Fox reservoir shocks. Gives the dual shock look but with unmatched performance.

I have a Tuff Country dual shock kit part #75390 and I think I even still have the two Tuff Country shocks part # 62231 sitting somewhere in my garage. Fits 94-01 Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 (according to their website). Purchased from Rocky Mountain Suspensions for $147 plus shipping. I'd sell it for a fair offer. I never installed it. It is brand new. All I did was open the box and the bags to look at everything, but never got around to getting it on my truck. The Tuff Country shocks that come with it are designed to work correctly as a secondary shock and rated for 1-3" of lift. It includes installation instructions.
