Skyjacker Hydros Busted/bent/leaking

The last couple of weeks I notice that the FJ was extremly boucy on the rear end.I was WTF is going on.Decided to take a look.Found the rear shocks where DONE.Leaking,bent and rusty.So the shocks had to go.Mark AKA "mtrent3450" was kind enough to hook me up with a pair of New Revtek shocks.Another reason why FJ owners are good peep's.The Revtek's ride nice and stiff.Took the bounce right off.I was amazed how thick the Revtek shock are compared to the Skyjacker's.The Skyjackers lasted maybe 1 year of abuse.Time for them to rest.Thanks again Mark.
